What role do ministers have in being their brother's keeper?

Answered in 1 source

Ministers have a significant role in guiding and protecting the spiritual welfare of their congregants.

Ministers hold a unique position as they are entrusted with the responsibility to shepherd their congregations. This includes providing spiritual guidance, teaching sound doctrine, and acting as watchmen over the sheep under their care. According to Ezekiel 33:6, if a watchman fails to warn the people, he becomes culpable for their destruction. This responsibility extends not only to encouraging believers but also to warning the unsaved about the eternal consequences of remaining in sin. Therefore, a faithful minister will embody the role of being a brother's keeper, ensuring that he conveys God's truth and compassion within his ministry.
