I have no knowledge of any of the details of the failure of his marriage or of his new relationship. But this does illustrate one of the problems with becoming a Christian celebrity. The bigger star you are, the greater the magnifying glass over your life. What I don’t understand is the almost total lack of discretion when something like this happens. We saw with the Bynum-Weeks romance and fairy tale wedding, that all that glitters is not gold. These TBN/MegaChurch/WoF celebrities always feel the need to sanctify what they’re doing and make great pomp & circumstance of their new season.
There no longer is a Shame for sin. Divorce and remarry inside of one year and not stepping down. This tells me he may be remorseful but not repentant! This is one thing that you never hear preached in church today, that there should be a Shame for Sin! King David was so shameful for his sin of adultery and killing he wrote Psalms 51that was Sung in the Temple! The Paula Whites and the Israel Houghton can talk about a New Season and it may be a new season with out God________________
No we should not, but we do. Our COG officials are celebrities within our ranks. Our Evangelists who {exceed and succeed) are celebrities.

What do you mean when you say accountability?How do you feel he has not been accountable?Do you want him to pay for his sin? How much?
