One Voice's picture

Disgraced Minister or Drug Induced Sins?

I must admit that this topic is disturbing to me, however I feel I must speak out say what I feel and know I am only One Voice..

Ted Haggard, reverand of the New Life Church in Colorado Springs Co. is only a human. I know that he is suppose to be a figure of God, and be Christ like. Aren't we all to be that way??

All the men and women that are in Ministry are the devil's most sought after souls. Just in my lifetime alone I have seen many preachers of the word fall far from grace. It has happened long before our time, and I am sure will happen long after we all are gone. The thing is,,, he, just like the many before him are forgiven. That is the wonderful forgiveness of our Heavenly Father. I feel that some people put the ministry above sin, which we all know is wrong. WE ALL sin and fall short of the glory of God. But Jesus made it right for us in God's eyes. So no matter what happens to us, or what choices we make, when we humble ourselves and cry out for forgiveness we ALL will receive it. It will be forgiven and God will never hold us accountable for it. It just disappears.

I am sorry to say that the people of the church Rev.Haggard founded, could not look at the big picture. I feel they are dismissing him on reasons that they are not responsible for. They have even gone so far as to force him out of town!! I must ask of them this,, What would Jesus do?? Would he cast him aside to live in sin forever?? You know He wouldn't... I ask you and all who want to, pray for the New Life Church. New Life Church, is just what this man needs, to be given the chance of a new life, at his church. Weather he is preaching or attending, he deserves that much at least, we ALL do..

Live well, Love much, Laugh often

just a thought...
