Recent news has highlighted prominent preachers whose sins have severely harmed the cause of Christ. While this is upsetting and discouraging, we should remember two powerful Bible truths that can change how we view these situations.
First, none of us are immune to temptation! As 1 Corinthians 10:12 warns, "Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall." Sin should alarm us, but the key to overcoming it is to cling tightly to the Savior. We need to stay in His Word, constantly seek His cleansing, and be openly accountable before others.
Second, God remains at work! As 2 Timothy 2:9 reminds us, "Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.” Human failure does not diminish God’s faithfulness. He is actively transforming hearts and calling more to serve Him. Just this week, we had the joy of preaching at a teen camp filled with victories and decisions to follow Jesus.
Let’s fix our eyes on Him, His Word, and His incredible work.
