People say priests are called by God. And there are priests that molest children and altar boys. Why would God want someone to serve his mission that is disgusting and a horrible person

You know for sure God recruited them or could they have taken advantage of their own free will and took it upon themselves to be priest?

maybe their parents pushed them into being a priest, but priest who molest kids dont have the love of God in their hearts.

He has no choice but to choose sinners, meaning we all sin, but of course there are some that say they are called of God and of course there not. they make that very obvious. I think people get a little confused and full of themselves sometimes and want power.

The Lord is "patient with all of us, and does not want anyone to perish, but wants everyone to repent". 2 Peter 3:9-15

We are ALL sinners.

You are.
I am.
Priests are.
Pastors are.


Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;


Luckily, while we draw breath, there's something we can do about it.

Because he didn't come to save the righteous, he said this himself.

Matthew 9
12On hearing this, Jesus said, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. 13But go and learn what this means: 'I desire mercy, not sacrifice.'[a] For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."

The simple answer is this.

Because that's all there is, sinners that is.

If you expect perfection from imperfect people you will always be disappointed.

He doesn't. He even warns of many false teachers and prophets and declares "by their fruit you will know them"

To save them from all their sins. Don't be too hard on those poor priest, we all each have our individual problems. None of us are perfect. Maybe some of those priests have not yet been saved from all their sins.
Jesus Christ is the Only Way to Heaven!

In The Holy Bible in John14:6 “Jesus saith unto, I am the way, the truth, and the life; no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” He meant: I am the only way to get to God the Father and to heaven. I am the only truth you need to know to get to God the Father and to heaven. I am the only spiritual life available to mankind. In other words, I am the only true and living God. All other so-called gods are false gods. They are not real. They do not exist. They are Satan or his demons appearing to be gods. No other so-called god has any power to forgive, remove and cleanse men from all their sins and get them to God the Father and to heaven.
The Holy Bible in Hebrews 11:6 says “But without faith it is impossible to please him (God); for he that cometh to God must believe (have faith) that he (God) is, and that he (God) is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him (God).” Parentheses mine!
I pray that, by faith, you will acknowledge that the Lord Jesus Christ is the only true and living God. (Romans 10:9-10 “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus {that Jesus is Lord} and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believed unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.”).
I pray you will believe all of this and, by faith, accept the fact that you are a sinner needing to be saved from all your sins (Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” and Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”) and that the blood Jesus Christ shed for you at Calvary is the only way you can have all your sins forgiven, removed and cleansed and the only way you can get to God the Father and to heaven. I pray you will, by faith, acknowledge all of this and ask Jesus Christ to forgive, remove and cleanse you from all your sins and accept Him into your heart and life to live for Him the rest of your life. (John l :12 But as many as received him, to them gave he the power to come sons {children} of God, even to them that believe on his name.”) All of this is what is meant when the Lord Jesus Christ said: “Jesus answered, and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto, Except a man be born again , he cannot see the kingdom of God (go to heaven).” You were born physically into your earthly family. To go to heaven you must be born again spiritually into your heavenly family, God's spiritual family. If you never have, I pray you will, by faith, turn from all your sins and receive Jesus Christ into your life/heart today, without delay. Do that today.
