Sure hope someone's not out to get this pastor and spreading lies.

I would think it was just the person posting it showing a bit of class not detailing the accusations. I think what was written covered the situation just fine.

Yes. It is not rumor. I would not have posted that he resigned if it were not true.

Re: Prominent Memphis Area Pastor Resigns
Bro. Terry Black was not a conservative from my understanding. I might be incorrect, but I do not believe that I am wrong. I would need to see more of his church.

Whether he was conservative or not depends on your paradigm. From my perspective he certainly was. It is certainly not a church that allowed cut hair, makeup or jewelry on women. Nor women wearing pants, etc. Now if you mean maybe he allowed sleeves to be above the elbows.........then that is another story.

Yes, and he is a firm supporter of the Holy Magic Hair doctrine. Lee Stoneking has been a frequent guest.

Re: Prominent Memphis Area Pastor Resigns
Ok, allow me please to say something about the "sleeves above the elbow" issue....as a former member of TPC under Pastor Black for 8 years, he did not HAMMER the sleeve, hair UP on the platform, or TV issues! NO WHERE is it written about sleeve length or hair up while on platform or TV! Bro Black did however preach against what you ALLOW in your home and that is what a remote is for! He was THE BEST pastor ever. Growing up 5th generation Apostolic, I have a late Uncle who passed and was UPC and hammered his "man made" rules from the pulpit and that was why his church was a small one. If it is NOT in GODS WORD....leave it alone!
