This is not a decision that Bishop Long has made alone. There have been MANY attorneys that have advised him on the moves to make.
I can assure you that if I were advised by my attorneys to settle - I would be happy to do it. These are some wicked people he has been dealing with.
I think it is a shame and a disgrace for anyone to come on here and sling mud and say what you would do. Number 1 - You have never pastored 30,000 people and don't have a world wide ministry that reaches millions every week - if not every day.
It is small minded midget mentality people that would say he is guilty and you have no clue at all what it is even all about.
We live in Metro Atlanta and this witch of an attorney for these boys - solicited them after she found that they broke into his offices and stole his phones and other pieces of equipment from his offices. She is known for bringing false accusations against ministers.
This all started after Bishop Long and Bernice King led a march in Atlanta that opposed same sex marriage.
I am glad for Bishop Long and New Birth and celebrate with him this great victory!
Another thing - I know personally the men - Pastors/Bishops and advisers that Bishop Long has and sat at the table with some of them this week. Everyone single one told me he as been advised by EVERY attorney, adviser, Pastor/Bishop, Insurance Companies and THE JUDGE - to settle and get it over with! He does have great spiritual fathers in his life that counsel and advise him.

The size of his congregation has no bearing on his guilt or innocence.
I have followed this story very closely and am fairly convinced he is as guilty as sin.
It seems Bishop Long is a world class hypocrite.
I wonder if he will ever lead any marches, or preach against homosexuality, again?
Several years ago, the Missouri District UPC Superintendent was accused of some really bad things with a minor. Instead of fighting it, he turned in his license. In the years since, he has tried, on multiple occasions, to regain his license.
This, even though he settled out of court, there is an audio recording of his confession, and a website expose with undeniable proof that he committed the crimes.
I believe God lets these things come to light to expose hypocrisy, and purify the church.
