[Morgana]

This is becoming a weekly thing with some of these churches.

[bankwalker]

weekly?

[Celtic Conservative]

This can’t be true! Only Catholic priests do these sorts of things!

Sounds like the elders acted well.

[Morgana]

Actually yes, if I posted every story I found It would be weekly.

[Morgana]

That’s what gets me, the elders were in on this too. They knew.

[MeanWestTexan]

Well, in fairness, this guy was heterosexual .

[aMorePerfectUnion]

Sounds like they investigated and cut him loose.

As it should be.

[11th_VA]

Stuff like this never happened at my old church - instead, half the kids of the elders turned gay or trans ...

[Doctor Freeze]

Pastor and author Paul David Tripp argues in his best-selling book, Lead that lurking behind every pastoral failure is the lack of a strong, functional leadership community. The elders should not automatically be free of accountability.

[bray]

Satan uses the same temptation over and over.

So the lead pastor of Cross Timbers Church in Texas, Josiah Anthony, engaged in sexual communication with women......

With Christian women as loose as they are today it should not be surprising. There doesn't seem to be any filters in society much at all now days for anyone. Marriage vows, if taken at all, aren't kept and often seen as no more than a nonbinding contract for shared living only.

[caww]

Marriage today is no more than a signed contract for shared living really....

Jude tells us.....”In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow after their own ungodly desires.”

[Fuzz]

The last times have been around for at least as long as we’ve had recorded history then, and it seems obvious that it would be long before that. Not like the written word would have caused evil selfish intent, so it must have been innate.

How many millennia does the end take?

[Morgana]

“With Christian women as loose as they are today it should not be surprising”

Why is that? Do you ever wonder? Maybe the person who is suppose to be preaching that all of this is a sin is not doing his job? In fact he does not even seem to know what his job is? Then once again here is Morgana posting about it?

[caww]

Well that would go all the way back to the garden.....when women lost their honorable position - the penalty was more than just painful childbirth that vrse contiues with....”And your desire will be to your husband and he shall ‘rule’ over you.”...

Women have been kicking against that for centuries.....and still do today.

[Fuzz]

Maybe if they wore burkas men like this would be able to behave.

[caww]

Well now that’s pushing the envelope way off the map!

[Fuzz]

Why? They’re loose Christian women, tempting a righteous man with their beauty and stuff. Men must be protected from that sort of thing apparently.

[caww]

You missed the point entirely.
