Subject: Divorced pastors and repentence |
Bible Note: On this one we can go back and forth a bit. I am not speaking to the office of Pastor - Someone else should do that. With regard to His eternal soul, I did use Matthew 3:8 - which is very strong. Ultimately, our eternal life is THE question - all other issues are merely how we may serve the Lord so that He is glorified. We don't matter. I spoke honestly about how I feel as a potential parishioner. We are called to love one another as He has loved us. Satan is prowling about like a roaring lion - and he truly is working to devour the brethren in these latter days. This person's eternal soul is of primary importance, and it should be of concern to all of us who read the posting. |
