CHRISTIANS BE SENSITIVE!
It is sad to know that some of our brothers and sisters engaged in a "third party relationship"... in short, ADULTERY! the bible clearly forbids A-D-U-L-T-E-R-Y. though it is not a new issue but for the church, is a serious problem. As christians, christlikeness must be evident in our daily life,yes, it is tough you may say since we are living in a big fallen world, a world of disaster. yet, it can be done by Gods grace. The challenge was to run the race with perseverance and to live a life that pleases the Lord. A friend of mine reported that thier married pastor is in a relation with a certain young lady...this young lady happens to be their church member!overwhelming huh?! but i don't blame the pastor for the said act, David did the same thing to Bathseba...but he must face the consequences for the sin he committed. my concern anyway was the church, immorality in the church is not new. i just wonder how are we going to take the harvest IF there are dried bush in the vineyard!?! Church, we need to open our eyes and be brave enough to look for our brethren. We are accountable for them! in pauls' time, he always remind the church to pray for each other, the same reminder is needed today. we have to pray for each other including our leaders... they too are humans who lives in the same filty world we are in and still needs our prayers. maybe, we are now so lax in praying for the christians, (am guilty) and get busy in our own selfish prayers...pray! PRAY! pRaY!!! and live holy... i wonder how many of us can still utter what john says..." IMITATE ME AS I IMITATE CHRIST..." 1 COR 11:1.
 
Yes we need to pray for each other, my home church was faced with the same problem.
He stepped down and I can tell you this, we can not judge those who have fallen. My brother in Christ came back a more powerful man of God than before.

We need to prayer for our pastors.
We need to be aware of those single ladies who constantly seek counsel from male pastors instead of going to his wife or female elders.

We need to pray, we need to watch.
Get to know the new members pray for them.

We need to pray.

I stand with you today in pray for other Christians.
 
Hi SandyGloria
Yes much prayer is needed.
Why would the enemy attack those who are not Christian.
Temptation is expected.

My biggest area of challenge is why do we see all this happening and not gather together with that brother or sister and come along side them to walk through these challenges.

Prayer is a mighty weapon and along with action of us taking that next step and being there for those who have fallen or better yet, being there for them before they get there.

Christians somehow myself included, get into this I can do it on my own. I can face that temptation alone.

That is the voice of the deceiver. STOP!!!!!

Lets get down right vulnerable with each other and brother to brother and sister to sister talk with one another!!!!!!!!!!
Iron sharpens Iron.

Just so you's know I have been down that road of deception and failed miserably. That is why I have so much passion for others who are struggling. I wish I would of had that brother come along side of me and care enough to jar me to my senses.

I am now part of a mens group that is moving in that direction of coming along side struggling marriages. Men need to help men and the Ladies likewise. Lets do it!!!!!!!

I've said enough for now will talk later
God Bless ya's

Very true sandygloria, we including my self find it very easy to accuse and blame our Pastors and leaders in the church, but we never ask or attempt to do what is expected of us. (prayer)


Its good to convict Christians who go around and talk what is wrong with that brother or that sister! our replay has to be " have you pray for him/her then?"

how are we going to take the harvest IF there are dried bush in the vineyard!?!

..........As i said in the other post "Do you pray for your pastors?" http://www.talkjesus.com/prayer-request/18713-do-you-pray-your-pastors.html

this leaders and pastors are in the front line. The devil primarily targets this leaders of the church, once this people under the enemy control it is very easy to control the churches progress, Just like the sheep is easily to be attacked with out the shepherd.

Amen COMPASSION to the fallen brothers and sisters

Zecharia 4:6 "This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ Says the LORD of hosts.

God intended the church to be blameless........Praying and praying until we see your will is done, Lord
