He probably won't. He's probably too busy being relevant and reaching his city for Jesus!

He is probably way too smart to get into a verbal exchange with Chester Wright.

That would be a no win situation for him.

Bishop Wright is smarter before breakfast than he is all day long, and has more Bible in his little finger than the other guy will ever have.

Relevant or not, Bishop Wright has done a way better job reaching his city than most of his critics.

he is way to smart to do that.

why come down from the wall ur building to engage in a battel that means nothing. plenty of people have smarts and bible knowledge but still don't have sense god gave a goose. Wright may not be one of them, but he would do well to just reach Anapolis and not worry how someone else does it.

Chester Wright is an Elder, and has a vested interest in dangerous trends that can affect his fellowship.

Thank God for men who have the backbone to speak out when doctrinal impurities threaten the fellowship.

Paul spoke out against false doctrine, and even called perpetrators and purveyors of said false doctrines by name.

This is Scriptural.

Then why was't CW smart enough not to call this brother out before the fellowship over something that is not a sin if he is so knowledgable in the word of God.

In accusing a brother in the Lord in the manner he did, he came across as someone not walking in a spirit of love to restore a brother he thinks is in error but as wanting to set MJ up as an cancer and a pariah! Because I don't see any mercy in the letter, I question what motivated CW to even name this brother's church, ENVY?

What false doctrine did CW expose?

Do you know the pastor in question?

ENVY?

ROFL!!!!

Chester Wright's church is many times the size of MJ's.

He spoke to Brother Haney because he was concerned about some of the influence this young man was having on other young men in our fellowship.

He is a District Superintendent, and has a certain responsibility of oversight in these areas.
