Bible Question: Is there scripture that would say that someone should refrain from a leadership role (worship team) while they are struggling with a particular sin (some drug use)? They say they know they should quit; but aren't saying that they will. |
Bible Answer: Hello Lynnd, Welcome to the Forum. This apparently simple question has deep implications; too deep to generalize for Forum participation in my opinion. Certainly the bible teaches that we all struggle with sin and will until the day we are glorified in Christ Jesus. I would argue that there is a significant difference in struggling with sin and participating willfully and continually in it. I believe most here would agree with that. With that said, I believe that these types of individual situations are too complex to be generalized and are better dealt with in the local church through the appropriate channels including leadership. Hope this helps, Jeff |
