McMinnville pastor accused in suit of Defamation

[Pilgram199]

A pilgrim (from the Latin peregrinus) is a traveler (literally one who has come from afar) who is on a journey to a holy place. Typically, this is a physical journey (often on foot) to some place of special significance to the adherent of a particular religious belief system.

Little play on words here.....pay attention.. Pilgram = traveler with a message

Thank you NDavid. At least you brought scripture to the table in this thread. Even tho I do not fully agree in this context as Jim is no longer a brother in pastors eyes. I do see your point and what you are trying to do. Again thank you.
As for you Evangilist Binnihinn thanks for bringing very little to the table ☝��. Maybe that is the Evangilist in you tho I don't know.
As I stated before the truth of all will come out in the coming months. Everyone that knows these people knows what is at face value.
i have said all that needs to be said and a lot more. People will excuse and disbelieve, call other people backslider preacher haters or sharks. Some will hate preachers and hope bad for them. I am neither. I brought info. I am not suing, I know both sides and have no reason to lie on a forum where both parties can see. I have not one accuser that can be brought against me for sin or lying. This will be my last post on this thread. I only hope Apostolic Pentecostals would stop with the divisive standard issues. It's about acts 2:38 conversion. Moderation is the key to a Christian walk. Philippians 4:5.

Arrested? Does not say. Charged? I dont know if this qualifies

"Goings previously complained to the Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries that Davies didn't pay overtime or failed to pay at all for landscaping work done by his Christian Academy students.
Eight teens filed wage and hour complaints. The state ordered the Davises to pay a total of $4,464 to the students."

You are correct n david, you are correct.

How is a preacher bleeding in the water? What about the saint that was excommunicated?

1.) continue on as nothing ever happened, submitting to every decision, nodding your head yes and joyfully giving tithes and offerings.

2.) respectfully hold back and hope that things are made right and the air is cleared.

3.) forget about the years that you have put into this church, pull up stakes and go some where else.

4.) other options

Find another church to attend? Is there one nearby?

Prax, was the preacher ever taken into custody?

What about him? Did you find out all sides of this story? The pew shark comment was made because this thread just looks like just another "eat the bad preacher" thread.
