Bible Note: Greetings Ed, np using my post - I don't mind. Your statement "Sure people get hurt, and that is a shame but to use it as excuse to justify being out of relationship with God is without support" I don't agree with you 100 percent - 90 percent yes but not 100 percent. I know of someone who loved church - who was raised in the church and loved God. They went to a church and got extremely hurt and offended by the pastor. This pastor (a male) who claimed to be so righteous but yet made a pass at the person I know who is also a male. He felt so violated by this pastor that he did not trust any pastor anymore - which is a shame. It has taken years for this person to go back to church but the whole time he kept up his relationship with God by prayer, Christian music and occationally a bible study that was not a church along with associating with other Christians. It is a horrible fact but there are a few rotten pastors heading churches that are giving most pastors a very bad image. Agape, prayon |
