COME OUT OF HER, MY PEOPLE (REV 18:4)
Here is a 200+ page document that shows great wickedness among pastors. Great wickedness among those who are supposed to be above reproach and leading believers in the ways of righteousness. As you read through the document you will assuredly be shocked and repulsed, but there's something else revealed when you observe closely.
Where were the elders and co-pastors? A council of elders is definitely a good thing, and these churches had them! They had councils of elders and co-pastors and deacons, but they were silent in correcting the wickedness among leadership which, as a result, turned them into hypocrites. As a result of their sin, church leaders have become subject to God's wrath (Romans 2:1-11) and believers should flee from them. The Bible is explicitly clear about a very specific formula in the ways of righteousness, holiness, and things of the Spirit.
