Bishop Eddie Long is being allegedly sued for misusing his spiritual authority to engage in sexual acts with young boys. The complaints claim that Bishop Long gave them jewelry, cars, money, international and national trips, and unlimited access to celebrities in exchange for sexual favors. He mentored a group of young men called the "Spiritual Sons" where the induction ceremony was a private "session" with the entering young man and Long. Now we have heard of plenty of pastors misusing their authority to get what they want, but really sex from young boys? I truly hope this comes out to be a scandal for money, because if not, the christian church as a whole is in big trouble.
Only the parties involved know what really happened and the truth of the matter, but so many questions come to mind. What would you do if your pastor was accused of this? What happens to your faith? Does your attitude change about God or just the pastor? Do you forgive and continue to be lead by such a man? Should he loose his church?
The Pastor that will make me second guess him as being a Pastor, My faith will remain the same due to the fact; that the pastor didn't give me my FAITH! He should definitely step down, he shouldn't be allowed to preach to a church and jail time should be given.
