The Church and The Bishop!!!!

Hello All,

I know that it's been a while since my last post. A lot has happened between now and then which brings me to my newest discussion.

There have been recent allegations eluding to the misconduct of Bishop Eddie Long and male counterparts from his congregation. I have heard every opinion known to man but what I have not heard is a prayer on behalf of all involved. I entitled this post "The Church and The Bishop" because not only is Bishop Eddie Long being scrutinized for such "out the norm" behavior, the church as a whole is now under attack. Mega churches have been scrutinized from the very begining because people don't truly understand the laws of sowing and reaping. People's views of Christ is somewhat scewed in that they feel he was a very poor man who was filled with compassion and humility. Only part of that is true. The bible is filled with God's views on money and how we should handle it. It is only when money is loved that it becomes a sin. When you use your money for kingdom purposes then it will be blessed and multiplied. God knew that people with lack of knowledge wouldn't understand this principle and that's why he stated that the blessing comes with persecution.
