If ministry was doing everything that the Bible teaches regarding the office of Pastor, Teacher, Evangelist, etc. There wouldn't be any time for all of the junk that’s happening. If a minister can Pastor his church and meet the needs of those he is serving and still hold an office, without neglecting the church, then great. I think it’s time for ministry to remember just what their calling really is and to get back to building the lives of people that are in his care...
If you think it is all about Control and Power you don’t know these men.

Dora, you are SOOOOOO right. I don't think he would be involved at all if Bro. T.R. McDonald was still living...

I've known and have fellowshiped most of these men over the years. Love them all, but its not unusal for positions of leadership to effect people. Positions that they hold or fail to hold.

Who knows the heart? It seems that most of these men have held office or desired to hold office in the past. I think this whole thing is about power and control.

This new "fellowship" may afford them those opportunities.

Just my opinion.
(sorry, new to this
If I recall correctly WM & JK were close in the elections and WM said he wouldn't run against his neighbor and withdrew his name before the second vote

Feel free to correct me if I am wrong .... my memory may have failed me.

That actually was what happened.

Sounds like he really was hungry for power, huh?

I never said he wasn't a man of God.Furthermore,don't assume you know things things that you don't.I have resided in the same District and do know him.

Now,why don't you just answer the question instead of skirting around it with assumptions
