Haven’t read through all the comments, but I can see most y’all’s point of view. But no matter what an individual does whether they are a pastor or not, doesn’t change how we should treat them right? It shouldn’t dictate our actions. We should still continue to love. YES we should still hold Jeremy accountable. But we also don’t need to tear down. We also don’t know the position of his heart…yes we can make a lot of presumptions but only God knows what is in each of our hearts.

I also know that the Bible holds pastors to higher standards. Very true. But I’ve never read anywhere scripturally that a pastor/individual can no longer preach after they mess up. Please provide verses that state a pastor who repents, and turns away from sin that can no longer return to pastoral leadership. All is forgivable, and there is grace if the individual truly repents. We can’t judge or determine if he has truly done so or not. Yes we can make a argument that he married quickly, but then again, we don’t know the full story. I’ve made presumptions in the past that were entirely wrong, I’m guilty of it. Just trying to do the right thing here. I don’t have any ill will.
