Years ago, back on the old FFF, I posted a similar message to what I am about to do here....some were not happy with it... some thought i was taking a swipe at Hyles for choosing Schaap.......
Anyway.. not too far from where I live, there is a church whose pastor has been there a long, long time. Says he cant go on forever and HE himself will choose his successor. Turns out to be his son. Half the church left. His son, really, is a good man. Nothing wrong with him....
One of the members of the church is a construction contractor, and he did some work on the Family's property out of town. I had some time to talk to him...and he was telling me the church constitution requires a vote from the congregation.
I think most of us agree that its not ALWAYS wrong if the son takes over for the father. Some cite Falwell's case. i really dont know much about that, but I dont think it turned out bad.
thoughts??
