Re: Can you dismiss WL's ministry because of his sins?
IMHO an all or nothing stance as it pertains to Bible teachers is somewhat childish. God gave us sober minds and discerning spirits and unlike Lee, the Blendeds, Titus Chu, etc. most Bible teachers today don't expect their audiences to accept everything they say as "the gospel truth". Adults discuss things and weigh things. So after hearing a sermon my wife and I discuss it on the way home and we may disagree with a few things or different things or whatever. So what? What's the big deal?
But I do know one thing: if I ever came across a teacher who expected absolute agreement and acceptance of his teachings as "the truth" = finding the nearest exit and escaping through it as quickly as possible! There's too many good teachers out there who don't think this about themselves to be fiddling around with those who do.
