🚨 PASTORS, PLEASE REPENT AND PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH!
There is something we seriously need to talk about in the church.
How can a pastor stand on the altar preaching “Flee from sexual immorality”, while secretly sleeping with women in the same congregation?
How can you preach faithfulness to married couples on Sunday, yet secretly pursue another man’s wife?
How can you preach holiness to the choir, while having inappropriate relationships with choir members?
How can you counsel ushers, deacons and other church workers about godly living, while secretly crossing the very boundaries you are supposed to protect?
A pastor is not just holding a microphone. He is holding people’s trust.
People come to pastors with their problems, marriages, fears, weaknesses and private struggles because they believe they are speaking to someone who will guide them—not someone who will take advantage of their vulnerability.
And let me say this clearly: being attracted to someone does not give a pastor permission to cross boundaries. Church leadership carries responsibility, and the person in authority must be the one to maintain appropriate boundaries.
If you are a pastor secretly sleeping with members of your congregation, REPENT.
If you are involved with another man's wife, REPENT.
If you are using your position, prayers, counselling or spiritual authority to pursue women in your church, REPENT.
Don't preach holiness while practicing secrecy.
Don't preach faithfulness while living a double life.
Don't shout “Repent!” from the pulpit when you refuse to repent in your own private life.
And to church leaders: don't cover serious misconduct simply because the person involved is a popular pastor. Accountability protects the church and the people entrusted to its care.
Pastor, before you tell your congregation to change, look in the mirror.
Pray. Repent. Make things right. Accept accountability.
DO WHAT YOU PREACH.
Because the pulpit is not a license to live a secret life. 🙏
