Yes, I've heard this pastor preach too.
He most defiantly has a gift to be able to emotionally move the masses.
But he made a mockery out of the entire congregation when the news of his infidelity came out.
He was almost on his way to doing the right thing with a group of very respected leaders backing him up and the whole congregation supporting him.
Then he turned around to go back to his infedelity and told all the leaders that were caring for him to get out because
"This is my church and I built it, so it belongs to me."
So that's when over 500 people and all the others leaders left.
And now he has a huge building he can't pay for with his new wife by his side.
No one was throwing rocks at him.
But didn't Jesus do the same for the adulterous woman.
And then Jesus said to her -
"Woman, you have 5 husbands, go and sin no more."
All those 500 people and leaders we doing was NOT throwing rocks at this pastor but they did say the same to him as Jesus said to that woman.
They said -
"pastor, you have two wives, now go and sin no more."
But pastor chose his sin instead.
That's his choice.
Now why should he also try to have a position of pastor if he is choosing his infidelity instead?
He should simply go get a regular job and live like other people do.
But he wants his cake and eat it too.
And how's that working out?
The church doesn't even have a website anymore, no choir, no band and about 20 clueless people who occasionally are attending.
He was so successful and had connections with other leaders throughout the country but he told them off and told them to get out.
He now has no accountability to anyone but himself.
All I'm hoping is that one day he will go back to these leaders whom are his friends and ask them for help once again.
I know these people and they are always praying for this pastor to turn from his infidelity and be restored back to the way he was.
