Bible Note: Hi, justme - Yes, I certainly believe you're right in saying that the Lord is in charge and wise in saying that that's where you'll leave it! ...... It is not our mission to pass judgment on the domestic trials and tribulations of Dr. Charles Stanley and the woman he married nearly a half century ago. Nor do we have any business posting to SBF our opinions on this matter, particularly in the absence of all the facts in this case, which, it is safe to assume, none of us has. Of course, those who are without sin are exempt and can hurl as many stones as they wish.... --Hank |
