Frankly, if a minister can't control his tongue, he's not worth his salt.

And then there's the issue of being a father, trying to raise a boy to be Christian gentleman in this world with preachers talking like this. As a Christian and a father, I think it also shows a fundamental lack of respect for every parent in the sanctuary if you say it within earshot of their children. Frankly, if my son began to use words like that calling his friends or kids he doesn't like "queers" or "fags", I'd do two things. First, I'd tell him that Christian men don't talk that way. We are to bless our enemies and pray for them, not curse them. Then I'd go to that pastor and put my finger in his chest and tell him what I think of him.... but I'd choose to do it in a public forum so that everyone could hear that my boy was picking up language like that....from him.
Did you even read what I said? You aren't trying to get my point.

  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
