Why are pastors of large or mega churches always falling into sin? I really think there should be some kind of limit placed on the numbers of members per church. Once the church reaches that limit, then a new church should be started. Also I really think all pastors should be placed on a fixed salary. Just look at the apostles. Did any of them live lavishly? Did any of them pastors thousands of people? What do you think?

What a bizarre post. Limit placed on members per church? That is nuts. 3,000 were added to the church on the day of Pentecost. Guess they should have turned away the last 2700.
You certainly paint with a broad brush when you ask "why are pastors of large or mega churches ALWAYS falling into sin". The vast majority of pastors of large or mega churches do not fall into sin.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
