He not only is still in ministry, but God has promoted the ministry in many ways. The Holy Spirit anointing on this man is about the strongest I've seen on anyone. I have personally seen devils cast out, people healed, and set free through his meetings.
If God is not hold this against him, why should man?
On another note I know of a man who was married/divorced before salvation. He got saved, called to the ministry, and has literally ministered to millions of people with multitudes of testimonies or healings, deliverances, etc.
Again I say, if God's not holding it against them then why should man?
I think people get stuck on minors and it holds them back. Love people, help people, but let God work out the details

Nice stories, but the idea that someone must have an approval of God on specific areas of life because people have responded with faith to their ministry is faulty. A minister can be living in outright sin and have great response to the preached word of God. It means nothing other than, God's word is powerful.
