well there are committed baptist

committed Methodist, Lutherans and Protestants so I cant say that having the right "doctrine" will guarantee a good marriage.

I think it just goes to show that money and being highly visible in the Christian community doesn't always equate to happiness or a happy marriage.

But may even demonstrate the importance of having a strong marriage and how your marriage could suffer as a result of the demands of having a high profile ministry--


Its the green grass syndorm, what may appear to be greener is not what appears to be at all.

So true. I think when you are busy, it's going to take a toll. I think I heard Brother Rex Johnson say that is when a preacher makes his worst mistakes - when he is tired.

Did you read all of this......the end gets really interesting. I think the last person interviewed summed it all up.

So having True Doctrine or Anointing is a guarantee that your marriage will be peachy?? I hate to differ with you, brother, but I've known good solid Oneness believing, Jesus' name baptizing, Standards strong people whose marriages didn't make it. I've also known even more whose marriages did make it - but were miserable and abusive.

While I believe that having good doctrine and especially a strong anointing are vital to serving the Lord, I do NOT believe that just because a marriage breaks up that you can lay it to the fact that they didn't have correct doctrine, etc.

Sad ... as is some of the analysis here in this thread.

I wish this on no one.

I am sad for all involved...

The article says that Randy will because Paula travels so much with her ministry.

This is so sad, but the most absurd statement I read in the article, and I did not read all of it was that "This announcement did or will not weaken the church". The person who said this has no clue. An announcement of this magnitude will definitely weaken some, some will leave and not come back, some will never again have trust in a spiritual leader and on it goes. Why people in spiritual leadership act and live like whatever they do will not effect the people they are leading is beyond me.

There are no guarantee's that relationship will last without both parties working towards that goal... My question is why didn't they think the relationship was worth saving above their ministry? Is this a new trend? will they be celebrated possibly for their great sacrifice?

I have a hard time feeling sorry for people who can't make a marriage work citing growing apart because of work... with exception of adultrery... I DO FEEL SORRY FOR THE PARTY THAT TRIES AND THE OTHER SIDE WON"t...

I don't feel sorry for these two at all... It's ridiculous to see these people preaching relationship when behind the scenes theirs was a shamble...

I DO feel sorry for the countless lives they have now infected because of their stupidity and their "only" option left was divorce???


The more I think about it.. the more it bugs me...

oh yeah... Money Cometh...
