I share Brown’s concerns.
Their are many leaders in the Bible that I bet you would never have supported according to the core reasoning in the article if you so agreed. Take for example apostle Paul who prosecuted Christians who in the end turned out to be a great servant of God leading the Churches and People to God. Would you have agreed then with God’s decision knowing fully well this was the same man who was killing the Christians then? Other words your logic is flaw so as the Mr Browns.
So do I and he is correct.
