For those who begin to "follow a man, uplift a man, and be one with that man and his ministry," nearly every one reaches the point where he must close his eyes to sins and failures, hide his face from others who are being persecuted for righteousness sake, be complicit to numerous coverups of unrighteousness, take part in expelling those who speak the truth, and thus have his conscience seared with a branding iron.

Ohio, how I have been told as all in the context of vision. having the vision and being faithful to the vision. True, there may be be some acknowlegdment mistakes were made, but it's as brothers have uttered many times; "it's not about right or wrong. It's about life".
