    “Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness.”
    ‭‭James‬ ‭3‬:‭1‬ ‭
    “For it is time for judgment to begin at the household of God; and if it begins with us, what will be the outcome for those who do not obey the gospel of God?”
    ‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭4‬:‭17‬ ‭

      Excellent verses GREAT COMMENTARY AND ALLS I'M GOING TO SAY IS I PRAY THOSE PEOPLE WAKE UP THAT WE'RE FOLLOWING THE APOSTATE PASTOR THERE ARE MORE OF THEM THAN THERE ARE OF THOSE THAT SPEAK UNAPOLOGETICALLY THE TRUE GOSPEL WHICH SPEAKS OF HELL, THE 7 YEAR TRIBULATION, THE RAPTURE, AND LIVING RIGHTEOUSLY EVERY DAY. NO MAN COULD EVER DO ANYTHING THAT GOD CANNOT FORGIVE THEM IF THEY TRULY ARE REPENTIVE, WE CAN ALL BE RESTORED THAT'S WHY JESUS DIED ON THE CROSS. BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN WE NEED TO BE IN THE POSITION OF AUTHORITY OVER PEOPLE WHEN WE LED PEOPLE ASTRAY.
      AS FAR AS MAX LUCADO I WENT TO HIS CHURCH AND WELL HE'S ANOTHER FALSE PROPHET THAT NEEDS TO FIND JESUS AND IF NOT HIM JUST LIKE THOSE WHO FOLLOW HIM UNFORTUNATELY WILL END UP IN HELL AND I WOULDN'T WISH THAT ON ANYBODY SO WAKE UP AMERICA WAKE UP WORLD JESUS IS COMING SOON AND YOU'RE SEEING GOD EXPOSING EVIL ALL OVER THE EARTH AND JUDGMENT DOES BEGIN IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD, IT'S BEEN GOING ON SINCE 2020 WHEN PASTORS BOWED TO THE GOVERNMENT INSTEAD OF GOD 🦁🙌🔥🔥🔥🔥

    As we navigate the worst of times for this church congregation, We stand with this congregation to pray and seek God's face for direction. Iam excited that the wonderful teaching pastor MAX LUCADO will step in to continue to teach the word "All who are pointing fingers remember we are all panes of Glass to God. Let's be careful with our words God still has his hand on this situation. Our true testament will say to the world who we were really listening to, Pastor Morris or God. This is a real test I hope we pass. We're not having a conversation we are just praying.❤

    I am so appalled at how quickly the "elders" condemed a Godly man who confessed, repented and went on to lead a Body of Christ for decades afterward--IN CHRIST!! To allow a 30 year old sin, touted by a "15 minutes of fame" seeker to slap Jesus in HIS face is just so UNCHRISTIAN!! She is commanded by Jesus to FORGIVE. The Church, who gave him instructions and forgiveness, now doesn't even stand with him, but throws him to the wolves!! Almighty God will recompense. GOD BLESS YOU ROBERT MORISS. Who of us who Christ has SAVED has not done abominable sins in our past?? We're FORGIVEN and covered by HIS BLOOD!! This whole mess is caused by the evil one and is a slap in the face of Jesus by HIS own church. Shame on you all. Amen.

    I pray for this ministry. All it takes is for leadership to take things in the wrong direction, destroy a ministry, and ruin people's lives.
    Ive told friends and people attending a Church time and time again, if you attend a local Church that is good and has healthy leadership, do everything possible to submit under spiritual authority. Its a rarity these days where you hear of healthy churches.
    Can't imagine the trauma some sre going through hear. Lord willing many who have recovered, but ideally, many who've ordered probably left too. Always pray for the Church. especially leadership. You never know what God will expose to being to the forefront. What a sad situation, but Jesus knows best.

      Yes, many pastors do labour for sharing the gospel, spend over 60+ or more hours a week preparing messages, plus trying to maintain equilibrium with other areas of their lives, but some also aren't preaching the gospel, and lack transparency ever even telling a congregation where the money they give goes to. The Bible says as well that you can't serve God and Money. Money isn't inheritenly evil, but what one does with it.
