“admitted to assaulting several young people years ago.”
If this involved the Catholic Church there would be 300 people signing on for a payout.
Satan attends church regularly just waiting for his chance.
This doesn't seem to be the proper response in keeping with scripture where an elder needs to be above reproach. The man might have a gift for music, and perhaps could be used from time to time, but he has disqualified himself to be a leader in the church. He should never have been reinstated as a minister.
Theres a special place in hell for those men in a position of trust - priests And ministers, teachers , police officers , firefighters , Cub Scout leaders who use that power to try to fulfill their perverted sexual desires
Luck if youre confused and think youre gay or whatever fine and dandy just take your thing and do it with adults OK ? thanks
The Catholic church is Satans example.
I agree. That is where this church and the Catholic church are similar.
Their leadership is always good to go again.
From the article we are posting about:
- The pastor also apologized to the Southern Baptist Convention and SBC President J.D. Greear for having “failed my duty as a pastor in not taking action sooner.”
Your reply is not based in reality because with the Catholic Church it has become public.
Satanic, is smearing the whole of the Church created by Jesus because of abuse from homosexuals that didnt belong.
If you you want to talk SATA
...Satan, that is.
The pastor is also supposed to be above reproach and failed. He should be removed from ministry.
It is thoroughly unacceptable to see molestation of a child as an isolated incident. Ever.
I volunteer in youth ministry. We are constantly vigilant and need to remain that way.
Oh dear Lord, back in the horse and buggy days when I was growing up, you’d have the cops called on you in a second if this happened. This preacher has to work it out with the Lord and never preach again!! No excuses!
In Central America, every small town has a child of the priest. A single lady with a kid who stays close to the priest. Some celibacy there, if you ask me.
The Catholic church hides its perverts and keeps them from authorities.
The Catholic church is the church Satan most loves, it appears.
Now, go pray to Mary and she if she can save you.
Something like that does far m,ore spiritual damage than most people would realize, on several fronts.
The abuse itself allows the entry of demonic influences into a person's life, but also the betrayal by a person in a spiritual position of leadership can cause untold spiritual damage as well.
You are right, we Catholics are some really bad sinners, some unrepentant, and we need to repent and clean ourselves up with the help of God. No dispute there. I hope this paster and congregation can do the same. We must love and be ever vigilant against satan’s push, and true, the Catholic Church is satan’s favorite to go after, being His Church, the apostolic church to break.
You are a day late and a dollar short. The Catholic Church has long become aware they can and need to report on these crimes and still forgive the sinner. This has been a big focus of the Church for years now.
Ill pray through Mary, The Mother of God, for you. To remove the hate in your heart and crazed rants against the Church of Jesus.
-You are right, we Catholics are some really bad sinners, some unrepentant, and we need to repent and clean ourselves up with the help of God.
He is saying all, as in the whole Church, not just some. He then belittles Mary The Mother of God. Has nothing to say at all about this Georgia pastor though who admits he did not act because the abuser “was his friend”. What the heck is THAT. Thats Satan right there.
I am only deriding Catholic lay people to the extent they support the evil in their church.
The Catholic leadership, from nuns and priests, on up, are overwhelmingly corrupt, with no ability to change it, by design. In most non-Catholic churches, the lay people have elders agreed to by the lay people with whom their ministers are accountable to, with the elders being accountable to the Bible and the lay people and each other. It follows what is said in the Bible.
In the Catholic church, people are appointed from the Deep State that reports to no one but the Deep State. Any decisions affecting the church body, down to who is the priest at a given location at a given day, is directed by the Deep State. If parishioners dont like it, well, nothing can be done. Period.
As Titus says, elders are to be above reproach and to be the husbands of only one wife (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Titus+1%3A6-9&version=ESV). Not a single person in such a role exists in the Catholic church ANYWHERE.
The converted disciples of each church were responsible for choosing their elders in the true New Testament church, according to Acts 14:20-23 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+14&version=ESV). Again, the Catholic church provably is not Scriptural, as this is not done in the Catholic church ANYWHERE.
That, guys, is insane and shows at fundamental levels the type of evil underpinnings you each support. Catholics support things very much not of God.
- In the Catholic church, people are appointed from the Deep State that reports to no one but the Deep State.
I get it. The mere mention of the Catholic Church has triggered you.
Now you are busy digging, your eternal grave. Because you, and Satan, know better than Christ.
Have a good time with that.
Your own Bible condemns your churchs practices.
