Re: Prominent Memphis Area Pastor Resigns

And as long as that's the attitude, and someone doesn't question the whole flawed system and the approach to God being built around "moves of God" at church rather than the Gospel, God's grace, faith and daily walking with Jesus.

The above caught my attention from a previous post. I think it says a lot about my own delusion while in the movement.

Yes, but in this case the sender specifically asked me to post it because he cannot. I cleared it with admin, first.

If I do it, "it's a fault!" If you do it it, "is a SIN!"
Just kidding. I hope! I hope there is no one that really feels that way!

Re: Prominent Memphis Area Pastor Resigns

I don't know about the rest of you, but I tend to believe that if it was years and years of affairs that women would be coming out about it and not staying silent. Who knows there may be some truth to some of the things that it is buried beneath the lies of some very angry people that were obviously at that church... But this sure sounds like a witchhunt to me.

All my point is is that I would be very careful and choose my words wisely... Because some people on this forum are walking very closely to the line of the seven things that the Scripture talks about that God hates...regardless of the truth of the matter.

Remember- no matter what happened. We are all sinners- we all fall- how can we judge who sin is worse? And if any of it is true thank God we serve a God of mercy, restoration and love!

Sad, but this is the reason why people go slow passed a bad car accident.

Ponder this the next time you're in heavy traffic due to a bad wreck.

Re: Prominent Memphis Area Pastor Resigns

I apologize Chat. I wonder why someone thinks they need a messenger. What's the point in dragging this out? All we have is more dirty laundry from someone with an agenda.

Fault covers you and your buddies. Sin applies to everyone else.
