I do agree with you however, i was not there either. I do tend to aire on the side of mercy though and instead of the brash comment defending the do-no-wrong preachers club I may have just prayed.
thats just me though

Brother,
Believe me, I have seen my share of preachers doing wrong things.
I'm not a member of that club you referenced.
But the truth of the matter is, we are all human beings, and sometimes the saints need to know that the road runs both ways.

I agree here, bro... but with that in mind, you do understand that 'ministry' is held to a higher 'standard' (bad choice of words, sorry), right? I know you hold yourself very accountable.

The higher standard is acceptable, and even Scriptural.
No problem with that.
A completely unrealistic standard is something else entirely.

Aside from being human and one that should lead by example (and take that example seriously and with humility), I don't know what else people can expect from leaders.
Leaders serve and domineering is not serving... is it?
Not saying you are one of those domineering leaders. I actually don't think you are.
Trust is earned...

thankyou for you honesty here Bro Coon. I wouldn't have put you in that club.
I agree that saints can be CRAZEEE as well. Still not for sure if I would have went down that road right off the bat. How about a little love first?

Honestly, knowing nothing about the situation, it is easy to make that judgment call. I would agree that generally, that isn't probably the wisest response to such a query.
However, I also think enough of this pastor to believe that he probably doesn't normally say things like that. He very possibly knew or felt in the Holy Ghost something that caused him to reply in that way.
