    This is why we need to end the unbiblical career track of ministers coming from college going to seminary and then entering ministry in a church. Now I am saying this knowing high school and college friends and ministers who did take this route and God in His mercy still used them but it is not biblical, it is not His direct orders as stated in Timothy and Titus. Elders and staff are to come from within a congregation.

    Sad that something like this happens in ALL CHIRCHES. I retired as a Southern Baptist prison chaplain and have worked with people from all denominations and religions. Sin is sin regardless of where it comes from. Not to make excuses, but I have seen so many situations where the one committing the crime was also a victim of abuse. In the early part of my marriage my wife and I lived in an apartment. One of our neighbors was a young lady from one of the northern states. One day she was talking with my wife and me. She told us that a Baptist preacher came into their community and was starting a Baptist church. She went to a church of another denomination. Her church sent out a group of 14-year-old girls to try to seduce the pastor. I was out of the country with the military and when I got back, my wife told me that she shot herself and died. She was only about 25 years old. Remember anywhere that God is working, the devil is working twice as hard.

This comment isn’t about who anyone should vote for but rather to wake up Christians and quit making excuses for one person of power while condemning others you find repulsive.

His statement was an indictment of cheap, immoral women. I notice you did not condemn the current president for showering with his daughter or ignoring his one granddaughter, nor did you condemn his son for incest with his brother's widow. At least be fair and accurate with your criticism. In case you think I blindly support DJT, I do not. I support his policies for the country. I only support Jesus Christ 100 percent.

    It is imperative that we Americans learn self control.
    Unfortunately having been a Southern Baptist for nearly 25 years, I was also led to think that sin was not as dangerous as it really is. We would transgress in many "little" ways and simply shrug it off as being simply part of our sinful nature which we thought we had no control over.
    With teaching like that, why are we so surprised? He thought that he was "Saved".
    We sorely need to concentrate on REPENTANCE. No more of this eternal security nonsense! All the Apostles taught repentance. When grace was taught, it was not a replacement for repentance, it was always alongside of it. The works of the law were condemned BECAUSE one can keep the law without having a repentant heart.
    But a repentant heart always walks in grace.
    I'm afraid that that pastor may well have bought himself a ticket to hell. Because he didn't repent. He didn't turn from his wicked ways. His heart was full of lust instead of Christian self sacrifice.
    As Americans we had better learn this quickly. Or suffer the consequences.

    died from it. I say no names because I am sure you that for the past
    63 years the wife and children or family with the same name have lived in shame. I know if a person TRUELY repents they are forgiven. They still must bear the consequences on Earth for their actions. However if this guy became so Apostate and filthy evil that he gave
    himself over to that foul of a Reprobate mind and acted in the drives

    is possible.GOD can forgive all but one sin yes, but this guys ability to
    TRUELY repent and change his reprobate desires is the question. In

    I am not surprised. Even this video quotes from a false bible. When you step away from sound doctrine, that is the beginning of the end. You cannot follow false doctrine and expect God to bless it. Before you accept the new versions of the bible, do some research. Compare what they say to what the KJV says and, if you pay attention, you will see a difference. The new versions are changing scripture. Then read Revelation 22:18, 19 to see what will happen if you change scripture or accept changed scripture. He who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

The testimony of the claimant is pretty strong. She has claimed probably by affidavit that Billy Graham molested her while he during the same time period. touted this open door policy.

    I have never heard a more milk toast commentary in my life! Call sin a sin for crying out loud. Churches need to stop hiring sinners as pastors and go back to requiring a testimony other than "I was baptized at 7 and joined the church and attended seminary etc.". Needless to say, the member on the committees that are tasked to interview potential pastors need to be saved and have a healthy dose of suspicion when investigating potential hires. In the Bible, pastors, deacons, elders were chosen from the congregation they were going to serve and had already exhibited spiritual and moral maturity. We don't know the details of when and where the abuse happened, but at least the perv was arrested. I agree with comments below that God is cleaning out His Church, 1 Peter 4:17 "For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God, and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?".
