Kirk Franklin: When Christians Fail Publicly
Headlines barraged us in recent weeks as men and women fell to personal sin.
Now, as churches sort out how to move on from the sins of their pastors or other major leaders, musician Kirk Franklin shares words of wisdom.
“As a Christian I’m not enjoying all of the attention we’re getting lately for our public failures. As imperfect as I am, I’ve seen Grace..” the musician posted in the first of a series of tweets.
“I know it’s power when we confess our sins, and not make excuses. When a Christian falls, it affects everyone; not just the one fallen..
“People will forgive; I’ve seen it in my own life. They just don’t like (bunk). Our job to win souls, justifying our wrong ain’t the solution..
“Anyone can use a scripture to defend their view, that’s why you gotta know the whole book, and not just the verse…
“I love my team..and I hate when we lose. Because when we lose, the kingdom feels it. #imdone”
