Re: Would you sit under Eli?
Every minister SHOULD have elders in his life who are able to deal with his discrepancies. However, elders only have as much authority as they are given. If I was a non ministering saint in a church, I'm not sure how I would handle it. I certainly do not believe in an attempt to overthrow the pastor. As Amanah said, some may chose to quietly wait and pray while judgment looms. Others may seek out new leadership. In cases that involve immorality or doctrinal compromise, I don't think either position would be wrong. I would confront doctrinal compromise, however, in a respectful face to face manner. I could certainly not subject my family to compromised preaching and teaching.
