Subtle Deceptions
I found out yesterday that a man of God whose written words greatly extoled the wonders and glory of the Living God did not provide for even the most basic needs of his family, while having the financial wherewithal to do so, instead giving nearly half his income back to the church and other organizations that served the Lord, while his large family lived on the edge of poverty. I recently heard of a pastor, one who is known to speak the truth in tears suggest to a woman that she attend her granddaughter’s homosexual marriage, blatantly and willfully going against the will and Word of God, I pray he repents of this.
