Puritan Board Freshman
I was involved in a bit of a debate on a Facebook post about a mega church pastor who had an affair and recently stepped down. My position was that he can be forgiven and repent but that he should not be restored back into a church office position. The members of his church believe when he is ready he should be restored back to head pastor. Various arguments used included Jesus' immediate restoration of Peter after denying him or that we only serve the evil that brought him down when we chastise him. I know the scriptures teach that teachers are held to a higher standard. What do you think?
