But you are Here reading everything and commenting so you are just as guilty as the rest. IF you Reading Gossip and spreading it is ONE IN THE SAME. You are now apart of GOSSIP so get over it.
Read their post again, they are asking posters to stop posting about the subject.
Big difference between reading a thread, joining the gossip, and complaining about the gossip that it should stop.

Answer this? Why did GOD BRING TB to this church in the FIRST PLACE after they just suffered this same thing with the 1st pastor? N.P.U. did this very thing and TB was voted in to clean up the mess. Boy this shows how much you really know about the situation just because you go there, you must not have been there before TB was voted in or you would know this much. This isn't TPC 1st RODEO with a PASTOR that has went astray and committed adultery ....... I love how people get on here and tell others what they should be saying and not saying, why are you here reading and responding if you don't believe the people in here are doing right by Talking about this subject?
I had a typo. why did god bring T.B. to a church where the same issue was happening with the pastor before him. that was my point. sorry for the TYPO.

Ministerial failures are horrid not only personally but all that are affected by it. To keep hashing it only helps to keep the hurt alive. By the way I think immorality disqualifies a preacher from the ministry so I am not defending either of these men. I feel for that local church and families of those preachers whom they betrayed and scared them for the rest of their lives. Just a thought.
Been working all day---did I miss anything on AFF???

Somebody pulling back up this old thread reminded me to go check out the Terry Black Ministries website to see what he is up to these days. Was surprised to see a new website with only his blog on it. Rather ironic that the name of his blog is "Steppin Out".
Looks like he is resuming an old blog he started years ago. The current post is dated 5/2/16 and is the part 2 of a subject and the previous post, part1, is dated 4/30/12. Only a little over four years between posts!

Titus2woman on AFF
"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
