Question for you:
I am a 28 year old wife and mother to three small children. My husband and I have served in ministry for years and we adore the church of God.
Tonight I find myself very unsettled in my spirit. John 10:10 says the enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy. Mark 3:25 tells us that a house divided against itself cannot stand.
It breaks my heart to see so many posts here on this page degrade godly men and women. These men and women are in positions over us and deserve utmost respect, and especially our prayers. Psalms 105:15 gives us very clear instructions to touch not the Lord’s anointed and do His prophets no harm. Do we not take the Lord at His word?
“Let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth, but only such a word as is good for edification according to the need of the moment, so that it will give grace to those who hear.” Ephesians 4:29
What are we trying to accomplish here? Am I mistaken that this is a page to discuss matters in the church of God? Or is this simply a gossip forum?
Proverbs 20:19 says “He who goes about as a slanderer reveals secrets, Therefore do not associate with a gossip.”
Have you gone to the person that has offended you and discussed these matters with them? Have you shared with them your offense at their clothing or actions or what have you?
Something just doesn’t settle in my spirit about this. It seems a very dangerous thing to “touch God’s anointed.” Do we not fear the Lord and take Him at His word? It only seems appropriate that our general overseer and his wife as well as other overseers and pastors and their wives should be off limits for gossiping about. They deserve more respect than that. Surely we cannot believe this is ok by God’s standards.
