i saw his name on a few books at the christian book stores... .. but never read of them.... didn;t know anything about him until i saw this thread.....
You boast of being all about the Kingdom of God, suggesting Christians should live monastic lives as opposed to taking part in the functions of society, in which they have the freedom to do.
One might expect you to have thought the elementary principles of the Kingdom through a little better, and to care more for them.

In this dispute between Ekk and Sub, no doubt the ultimate conclusion will be that Trump and Netanyahu made Yancy do it…..
Maybe Yancy was thinking that if the President can do it, he could too?In this dispute between Ekk and Sub, no doubt the ultimate conclusion will be that Trump and Netanyahu made Yancy do it…..

Well, Yancey isn't a pastor so he gets a pass, just like the president.Maybe Yancy was thinking that if the President can do it, he could too?

He holds, to my knowledge, no official position in the church or ministry…therefore our recourse is to mark him as a hypocrite and pray for his restoration.
Unless you have a another suggestion.

Give him credit. He at least admitted to it and called it sin.Carter?
He felt guilty just for giving a sideways glance at a woman who wasn’t his wife

Jesus called it sin. Not sure why you think that is funny.He felt guilty just for giving a sideways glance at a woman who wasn’t his wife
It’s funny because because in comparison to the sexual exploits of the previously mentioned presidents, Carter got bludgeoned for admitting to “lust in his heart.” It must be difficult for you to go through life lacking a sense of humor. There might be counseling available if you seek it.
