Well my advice to you is make better judgment when joining a church and u wont have to leave them so often. I really feel sorry for you, can't even find a good church home.

Your supposedly sarcastic remarks are terribly betrayed by your silly questions that clearly demonstrate that you really don't bother to read what's right in front of you.

The deacons at Hillcrest Baptist Church decided to get rid of the pastor (Eric Redmond) through some pretty underhanded methods.

My prayer is that the love and peace of God will remain in you. Remember, “this is not your battle, it is the Lord’s” and “we wrestle not against flesh and blood but spiritual wickedness”. Now that we know that God is working it out, we must examine ourselves in the midst of such situations. He already said in his word that we will face persecutions and we already know what the end will be. So, in the midst of this, what is God saying to you regarding your own soul and spirit? Share with the congregants your hurts and what meditations and/or biblical teachings you are participating in that would heal your wounded spirit. I’m sure many P-P congregants are going thru the same. Rev 12:11 says: “we overcame satan by the blood of the lamb and the word of our testimony…” I welcome testimonies from other saints who have overcame because this is nothing new under the sun.
