Beware of wolves in sheep's clothing.

It makes me sad to hear the black church applaud these curious corrupt pastors as they stand before them either making excuses or giving insincere apologies. Smh

My sister’s Pastor continued to visit her home uninvited. The first time he said he wanted to pray for her. She had been out sick from church. So, she invited him in, he prayed for her and then he hugged her and whispered in her ears, “ you know we want each other, let’s make it happen.” My sister pulled away and asked him to leave. She stood by the door with it open just in case he tried something it was a summer day and people where outside. He continued to try and visit until my sister threatened to call his wife, and church officials. Eventually my sister left the church the minister is still to this day the Pastor. The only reason they are sorry is because they get caught.

Leaders of the Church MUST be held to THE STANDARD!! The standard set by Christ Himself.

When you are a Pastor and you get caught up in sex scandals, your own house is in shambles, and your wife is in distress, you have to step down, you are no longer qualified to lead the church, even if you get your life straight and ask for forgiveness from the Lord, you are still not qualified to lead the church.

Can't believe they were clapping and amening his half-hearted "apology" 😮😔

Charisma, with no character, is dangerous!

People have to understand God didn't call some of these so called pastors to lead his flock

I was born in the church my dad being a pastor, I am now 60 and have seen so much of this through the years so many lives destroyed and the thing that gets me the most is the ARROGANCE of these people that always have the attitude that they are not accountable to their flock and that seems to be the only time they put themselves in the same position as the congregation.

[lorettarowe]

There is always forgiveness in the Lord. If they change their ways. But should never be allowed to preach again 😢

[harrisonlilly]

This is why Judgement is now upon the Church.

If we remember from Ephesians 5 that there should NOT be even a HINT of sexual immorality among us, we would never ever slide into mess. May God in Christ keep us pure!

[francessmalls]

So True, we as Leaders in The Kingdom Of God, are held accountable on a Higher Scale, because we have a *Charge To Keep And A God To Glorified*

I think people give Ministers way too much power and some way way too much money.
