Response: Me neither in fact I'm not sure I have all the questions. :lol: 8)

In this specific case I don't think the average Joe has all the facts enough to dictate what type of response was merited.

So I choose to err on the side of trust and grace rather than the hang him lynch mob mentality. Though I must admit not being above those type of fleeting thoughts a couple of years ago. :shock: 8)
What we need here is a good revival! lol

They should apologize for those congregations who continue to reject those whom Christ has made clean.

OK, I really thought this was about the doctrinal errors/judgmentalism of the past, not the financial blunders.

I do feel there were things not handled properly (the last 3 GAs there has been appologies for that, so I don't think anyone denies it) but I also know that it's easy to sit back with only partial knowledge and little responsibility and make judgments.

Whether I agree with the way things have been handled or not, I have to admit it's not a job I envy.
