Re: UPC Pastor Convicted of Slander in Pulpit!
Do we know if she is, or was ever, Apostolic?

According to this article that was linked from the spiritualabuse.org site Dan referenced, she had "left the church some months before."

That statement doesn't tell us whether she was a member in good standing, or a member at all, or if her husband was a member and she just came with him as a visitor.

I will, without equivocation, state that I believe any woman who would wear a bikini in public has a big time sin problem. It's called lasciviousness.

Nevertheless, while unwise, it is not actual fornication, and not biblical grounds for divorce.
Do you think a man lusting after a woman in his heart is grounds for divorce? Jesus said it was the same as committing adultery. That would come a lot closer to being biblical grounds than a bikini.

I was thinking the pastor was calling it fornication because he was wondering her motive. Do we need to sing, "Nasty Girl" by Inaya Day? LOL!

Is assuming someone's motive grounds for divorce?

Yeah, and I am still wondering if the man really had a problem with it at the time. Or decided after he got involved with the pastor's daughter. We are left with too much speculation anyway.
