A gift doesn't mean relationship. A person can operate at the highest level of their gift from God, but not their relationship in God. A relationship doesn't compromise, but a gift can be easily merchandised and masquerade as more than what it is. Gifts fool people and can affect those in the scope of it, but relationship moves all three realms which includes Heaven, Earth, and Hell. A spiritual gift only affects the earth realm and challenges the infringement of hell by invoking the power of heaven. I don't consider it dangerous to confront or discuss other so called spiritual leaders when they are in blatant and gross defiance to scripture truth and misleading others because I don't build men up like that. I can speak on it because that's a part of my God given assignment. Truth is truth and I'll defend that over persona or celebrity personality any day. The average person is completely unaware of what goes on in the world of celebrity because we become fans enamored with persona over God & Truth often without realizing it. The darkness is easier on the eyes because the brightness of the light often burns. There is a thin line between disrespect and respectfully correcting someone, especially a leader. No one is above correction but not everyone is anointed for confrontation or to correct those in positions of leadership & authority. Anyone who says they are above correction is a liar, full of pride, and delusional. One of the reasons God raises up prophets is to speak to those in power regardless of their positions as apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, teachers, bishops, presidents, kings, queens, princes, and so forth. The prophet's message is often unpopular as are they because it many times cuts to the heart, challenges the status quo, and reveals inconvenient truths people don't like to face.
