I understand that it's a touchy subject, I just see many in the church salivating over the fact that they can pronounce judgement on the situation that was brought up. It's like they want to be the one pushing the drug into the vein of the man or women being put to death.
Truly, the man that committed the act, would have to restored by prayer, fasting, counseling. I believe the current leadership, and saints would have to agree for a position in the church for that man or women. I believe God can still use him.

We can't make the bible say more than what it's saying.
No one salivating for judgement in this case, it's about the rightness of holding an office of eldership while married to the woman you left your wife over.
I say it's a lack of respect for the ministry to allow it. Leadership//saints can agree to error, it's happens.
