Fifteen years for a policy plan for sexual harassment. That is a joke.
I am a lawyer who does civil rights work and believe me, if COGIC
came to me for such a policy, I could draw one up for them within
30 days….for a fee of course (smile) that would route out these
predators and pedophiles and put the fear of God back into the pulpit!
Fifteen years! Bishop Blake needs to quit playing games and get serious. He is appealing to his base of men and not God, to do the right thing. He as such is off course and is not using godly
wisdom.
Fifteen years equals the fear of man and not of God. Blake is
trying to hope this outrage blows over and he can get on to other important things like new robes for the bishops or should the local COGIC pastors take up three offerings during a service or hold them to just two…you know, major issues that affect the membership!
Judgment will begin at the house of God and it appears that COGIC
is first in line. None too soon!
Don’t worry, Methodists, Lutherans, Baptists, Pentecostals, etc..
your turn is coming. God is no respecter of this denominationalism/tribalism foolishness.
It detracts from His truths and His glory and honor and it holds the true church up to ridicule.

I know this is a bit off topic, but brother Foster, have you seen the debate on homosexuality between Dr. Michael Brown and Harry Knox(the same fellow who debated Pastor Gino Jennings)? I think its worth a watch. Attached is part 1 of the debate.

15 years????? Are they serious??? 15 years is an insult to anyone with common sense. If it takes 15 years to come up with some rules, regulations and guidelines to combat perverts; COGIC should consider closing its doors!!! This is embrassing for a group of people that claim to hear from God!
Frankly Pastor,you and your regular blog readers would do a better job as co-bishops of COGIC. How hard can it be? Especially if we have 15 years to make major decisions and live large in the process? Sign me up-Lady D, Co-Bishop~

Well, congrats Pastor Foster, perhaps it was your leading in this subject..(sexual abuse) that got the attention of the COGIC leaders….and I hope that a plan is presented by COGIC…it breaks my heart to know that little children are being abused by the hands of men and lets be honest..women in the pulpit. I have ministered to quite a few men and women who had been molested by a male or female person in their church, its not just a COGIC issue..but frankly an issue across all lines…

Interesting stuff…
