Divine Justice is a Scary Thing!
May those who left this man’s congregation be blessed as they seek out a Bible Believing church. It is VERY hard to leave a church because of doctrinal error. The sense of family, the friendships, the community, and the social aspects of belonging are VERY Compelling. It is far easier to make excuses for the pastor, hope he will change his mind, or even stay on as “a light in the darkness”.
However, all those benefits are but dross if the church is not teaching Truth. I have had to do this myself on more than one occasion, and it is heart-wrenching and devastating.
