Jack Hayford - It Could Happen to Any One of Us

In his From the General Supervisor letter to Foursquare pastors entitled It Could Happen to Any One of Us, about the recent, highly mediatized moral failure of a prominent spiritual leader, Jack Hayford wrote the following words worth remembering,

  1. If you’re looking at anything, anytime that would not pass the judgment of your spouse, it’s inappropriate.
  2. If you are unavailable and no one knows where you’re at for considerable time allotments, it’s dangerous and needs to change.
  3. If you’ve created a web of lies and cover-ups, then the tentacles of sin have taken deep root.
  4. If repentance and accountability are not clearly present in your daily routine, then you are lion bait.
  5. If you don’t practice what God says about the need for purity of heart and head (avoid all sexual immorality), then you’re headed for a great fall.

AMEN! and God help us all...!
