After reading some comments on another blog, seems that GREED plays an important factor in all of the Assembly's election problems
Men getting three or four salaries is a big example of the beginnings of corruption. Plus the nice offerings given to this supposed men of GOD that go to speak at different functions.
Years ago a bishop was not a pastor and devoted his time serving the district he served. Now a bishop will not visit and has no idea or in some cases doesn't even care of the condition of the local churches under his care. Sits there on his throne and makes decisions for local churches that he has no idea what is going on. That's why power hungry abusive pastors are allowed to keep on doing their thing.
Honorable General Board members should not be bishops, pastors etc. That creates a window of opportunity for greed to come in, as it has. HGB members have family, close friends, and their local church members on the AA payroll, and as I have read and in my opinion is there a large portion of kick backs going to someone or a chosen few. Money picked up for missions or other good works have been sliced at the top. For what? For whom?
How can man with a track record of greed that goes far back be voted in. No I take that back he was not voted in. Two votes out of over 600 votes is not what I call being voted in.
There needs to be a change. Bad thing is that it won't happen overnight, but all in due process Our Lord will doing the cleaning and not us, and we can thank God that he is the one that does it and not man.

I need a question answered.
I must be reading the wrong Bible or not the same one the AA HGB is useing.
The Pastor yesterday after coming home from his three week vacation, said if you couldn't feel God and come to church ready to move and feel him by your self it wasn't his problem, and if he the Pastor was the problem of that, then it was better if you left.
The Bible I read speaks of Pastors that don't care of the flocks and scatter them and leave them out in the cold to face troubles by themselves. It speaks of the Good Pastor that will go through thick and thin to find the hurt, and wounded sheep to bring it back into the fold, but this guy doesn't want it to be his problem. So in his words, " its better if you left" If he doesn't want to be to be his problem then Why is he in it? For the Pay check?
He doesn't have anything planned for a Christmas service or anything, but was sure to point out that next sunday make sure to bring that extra Christmas offering.
So I ask you Bishop President. Answer me. Have I been reading the wrong Bible. Does the bible you read allow abuse in the way of insulting remarks. Does say its not the Pasors problem, to encourage and liven up the congreagation. I Mean that is one of the reasons I go to church to seek him and be encouraged, but after his rude remarks come home all discouraged.
Bishop Hoyer with all due respect could you answer me. I'm I reading a different Bible then the one Pastors read that says it ok to verbal abuse the flock. I ask you because he is one of your Pastors in your district. I'm not trying to be smart. I'm truely asking for help.

It's the pastor's job to keep the sheep within the fold without pressure.
So no, a pastor is not supposed to verbally, or in any other way, abuse the flock.
And no, it's not the pastor's job to get you excited either.
