Another One Down...


Another one down. I don’t know what to say…


“In a tearful videotaped message Sunday to his congregation, the senior pastor of a thriving evangelical megachurch in south metro Denver confessed to sexual relations with other men and announced he had voluntarily resigned his pulpit.

A month ago, the Rev. Paul Barnes of Grace Chapel in Doug las County preached to his 2,100-member congregation about integrity and grace in the aftermath of the Ted Haggard drugs-and-gay-sex
scandal. Now, the 54-year-old Barnes joins Haggard as a fallen evangelical minister who preached that homosexuality was a sin but grappled with a hidden life.

Careful saints of God. Remember, the next man to take this pulpit will be no closer to perfection than Mr. Barnes. Pray for this family, pray for Paul Barnes, pray for his congrigation, but pray as well for the bride,of Christ, The Church. We're in a desperate state.
