Evangelical Christians question?

Question

what do you think of the Ted Haggard mess? even though we all our sinners...he should have come clean right away! Agree or Disagree. And please dont tell me I am judging...he was investigated by the church board. I am simply relaying FACTS.

Answer 1

I think all Christians need to be praying for Haggard and for all of our pastors instead of just gawking and gossiping and kicking them while they're down. Check out the blog entry I just posted about Haggard.

Answer 2

I agree that he should've told the truth right away, why lie?I feel he just got caught up with being so powerful that he used the press to try to make himself look innocent.It all back-fired on him.I just hope that this is the last we have to hear from him.You know when you are known as a Christian, you stay under a microscope.This time it paid off, for the press.The ministry needs to take note, and stay alert to sinning, in any form.THEY ARE WATCHING......(GOD is, TOO)

Answer 3

I think, it has happened in every denomination, I do not need to recall for you the many that have fallen into sin. Let us keep our perspective, and keep from accusing all other, be they Priests Minsters or clergy of any kind because some have sinned, but include Ted in our prayers.

Answer 4

You have the right name, it's a mess. You don't seem judgmental, you are making a statement. It's awful, he's wrong and hypocritical, and stupid. But please don't judge all Christians by him, I am Southern Baptist, we are evangelical and I can't imagine such a horror involving my pastor, or any that I know.

Answer 5

I think it's an ongoing wakeup call to people who put their faith in, and identify with the message bearer instead of the message.
