because the Catholic church do not claim that receive revelation from God so that is why I understand that they have near of 700 hundred case of sexual abuse and they don´t know that happens but evangelicals claim that God reveal them things, why never tell them such kind of things?

You have "evangelicals" who claim "God told them" that there are demons in his refrigerator. You know? You can't go by that. When the Holy Spirit reveals something, it will surely come to pass, and He will do it in such a way that there is no confusion as to where it came from. God is not a God of confusion, we must remember that.
Those that commit sexual offenses under the guise of Christian clergy will soon be brought to light. God has not turned a blind eye to what they're doing. And He knows that they are a cancer in His church. The Bible says that your sins will find you out, and that would certainly apply in this case.

because the word of God says homosexuality is a sin, and those who do "it will not inherit the kingdom of God"
read 1 Cor. 6:9 the word effeminate there is the KJV of homosexual that's what they called it in that translation. also Lev 17 & 18 forbids it.
so how could someone be a Pastor or a priest if they are not in right standing with God. They can choose to be Gay but not a Gay Pastor.
And I hardly believe the priest who had sexual abuse on people were called of God, they wanted a profession, they were not called of God, true men of God would not do such a horriable thing.

Some ministries have gotten away from God and operate outside of His divine will. They have a form of godliness, but they are not truly connected to God. When a church is truly connected to God you will see the evidence of miracles, healings, prophesying, speaking in tongues, and the discerning of spirits. These are all manifestations of the Holy Spirits. These manifestations of the Spirit are here to glorify God and to protect the church. So if anyone came into the church and said he was called by God to preach. The Holy Spirit would reveal if the individual was a pedaphile. Any man who is a pedaphile in a church would bring destruction on himself in the Presence of God. About, 5 years ago the Lord showed me in a dream that one of the deacons was a pedaphile. About 6 months later he died. But before he died God exposed him to everyone. But my point is that if the leaders of the church are people who actually listen and hear God, they will see these individuals even before they get started. Anyone who lets them in knowing what they are doing is a partaker of their sins and will reap the same judgement.

You are making the assumption that the Spirit did not reveal it. I know of several cases where people were warned in advance and left churches before pastors fell into sin. It has happened to me. But as not everyone listens, there may still be people in those churches when the pastor's sin is revealed.

Because your god's been calling for child sacrifice since Abraham tied down Isaac and no one wants to cast the first stone at his brother.
Power corrupts; evangelical power corrupts evangelically.
