I think too many pastors/preachers have an anointing and somehow that makes them think they don't need integrity or character. I think God is much more interested in building the man than the ministry.
Oh Sis., I don't mean to imply that I have some sort of bitterness of wariness against the ministry...that's Rico! LOL

But I CAN understand where he's coming from to a certain respect. In my case, I have nothing against the ministry per se, I just don't put them on the pedestal that others seem. In some Apostolic churches they are venerated to the point of almost worship. From my perspective they are just people, just like me. No smarter, no more spiritual, no more holy. It's not that I don't respect them individually, but I do not respect them based solely on a title or an office.

But if you have been merciful, then God's mercy toward you will win out over his judgment against you.

True not many pastors here do, most pastor's do it over the pulpit in church for all to witness! As to shame~

Lol~ This statement funny and very untrue, you attacked me and few other's here on this site, in my case for no reason at all, I asked you was what was your outward sign, you went off on a tangent called me a wiccan . So don't say it never happens!
