Another one has fallen...

Heard the news this afternoon when melvin sent me the link to the report. Mike G of Planet Shakers Church, the one who wrote "Healer" on the new Hillsong Album, was actually faking his illness all these while. He is absolutely fine and healthy.


This got me wondering what is happening to the Church. Why has the Church gone to such state? Somehow, God led me to spend the last two days google-ing ministers that have fallen to sin. Many of them fall into the temptation of the world. Money, Sexual Sin and Power, the very thing that Jesus warns us about. Think about this, all these men are thought to be the ones that is passionate about His kingdom and the Word but one by one they have fallen to the sins of this world.


I realized that this can happen to any one of us. Even the so-called "anointed ones" have fallen, so what make us less vulnerable? The very fact that we constantly need the saving grace of God is evidence that none of us are able to say with confidence that we not fall into sin for the rest of our lives till the time we meet our Creator. We need to be accountable to people, brothers and sisters in Christ, that will help us stay in the destiny of God and in a strong relationship with God. Everyone of us need that. That's the only way we can stay in the right path. When we enter into this kind of accountability relationship, we are entering into a lifetime relationship that allows both parties to speak into each other's life and to instill discipline when needed.
