Bible Question:
Hi Country Girl, This is concerning the strict qualifications both deacons and pastors share. My question is this:If a deacon or pastor was married and divorced before they became a Christian and/or called by God would this still apply. |
Bible Answer: Hi justme, I appreciate your input. I attend a Baptist Church and they believe that what a person does prior to salvation does not count. One of the elderly women in our church told me that you can't go back and "unscramble eggs". We have deacons in our church that have been divorced and remarried and one that married a divorced woman but, this happened prior to them being saved. However I am a conservative and I would never knowingly attend a church where a homosexual was pastor. Please let me know your feelings on this. The bible doesn't elaborate on the befores. Blessings, pbp |
