Must be the Christian thing to do.
This is okay because it’s not the Catholic Church.
Maybe they’re not Christians after-all.
No sir, the Christian thing to do is to immediately remove him from all forms of ministry.
I knew a pastor who had a consensual affair outside his marriage. The church leaders immediately fired him. TO help his family, they were allowed to remain in the church owned home for a number of months. They were also allowed to keep the car the church had purchased for them. Both were modest assets.
Pastors and elders are held to a higher standard as clearly enumerated in Scripture. In my friends case, he permanently gave up his right to stand behind a pulpit.
In this guys case, the system failed the young ladies. He should be in jail. The Bible also mentions drowning with a millstone tied around one’s neck for similar crimes.
What is wrong with the people at this church? They should refuse to let this creep stay in their church. This is why so many people avoid the church. It’s like two of the churches in my town. They both fly the gay rainbow flag out front. One of them just had a pastor arrested for selling meth amphetamine. Sometimes he would trade it in exchange for watching to gay men have sex. What a disgusting scumbag.
