With: A plea to pray for pastors / Gardiner Spring.

Submission to their just and scriptural authority -- Church members should treat their pastors with distinguishing honor, esteem and love! -- Another duty which church members owe their pastors is attendance upon their ministry -- Another very important duty is earnest prayer! -- Members should encourage others to attend upon the ministry of their pastors

It is imperative for church members to make known to their pastors anything of importance that occurs within the scope of their observation or the course of their experience, relating to his church and congregation -- Zealous cooperation in all strategies of usefulness proposed by the pastor, whether for the benefit of their own local congregation in particular, or the welfare of the church and the world at large, is the duty of Christians -- Another essential duty is a most delicate and tender regard for the reputation of the pastor -- Finally, the pastor deserves generous financial support.
