Rebellion against any authority figure is never good. I say run as fast as you can away from the man in charge!! But don't stay in his house and rebel.

I agree. I think it has to be left up to God to overthrow temples! In order to make sure my own heart is right, I think its best to just leave.

Exactly....I know that God is the one in charge, I just had to get away...there was nothing I could do to change it ...for one they have to perceive that there is a problem...and want to change somthing...
