I meant "had to leave" on the basis of affiliation. It is symantics really. Yes he chose to leave and a bulk of the congregation chose to go with him to start another church.
Again, if the church would have not been affiliated, he could have lost his license and continue to pastor in that same location with a majority of the congregation....
But they didn't know the binding agreement of affiliation and therefore, when the district took his license he had to go find another building...
BTW, if a man is being investigated or has charges up against him...he cannot move to disaffiliate until the charges are settled and he is again in good standing...LOL...
So some of these affiliated folks had better hurry up if they are realy spouting about leaving or they just might be in the market for some new property....
