Of course we should pray for the man, but just as with other preachers who have MINISTRIES built around the how to deal with homosexuality and then get caught as homosexual themselves, we gotta start saying TO LEADERSHIP, if you have a problem you are hiding, DON'T BUILD A MINISTRY on that problem, you just take down more people than yourself when you are eventually exposed.
Here is a link to the story: http://onfaith.washingtonpost.com/onfaith/undergod/2010/09/bishop_eddie_long_new_birth_missionary_baptist_church_denies_allegations.html
Here is an excerpt: "Long has called for a national ban on same-sex marriage and his church counsels gay members to become straight. In 2004, he led a march with Bernice King to her father's Atlanta grave to support a national constitutional amendment to protect marriage "between one man and one woman."
This has got to stop. Yes, we all fall short of the mark, however; when you have a public minitsry that touches so many people, either admit you are struggling with what you are preaching about yourself OR don't start a ministry around an issue you yourself have.
I pray for Bishop Long, and I pray that people can seperate him from the message of the Gospel of the Kingdom of God.
