Sandi Patty leaving Anderson

Did Don Peslis get involve with Character Development at Anderson University and Character Counts of Madison County before or after his adulterous affair with Sandi Patti ?
How can you have character and trustworthiness when you cheat (adultery) on your married mate ?
Ironic isn't it !
Let them leave, Anderson needs a good moral cleaning.

Thats right on the money good question.

Jesus said anyone free from sin cast the first stone, no one could because none of us are free from sin. Jesus also said judge not for ye shall be judged! Look into your own closet!

Whoever you are, you don't understand repentance and forgiveness. Yes, there is a lot of greasy grace in the Christian world, with a lot of sloppy excuses. But not Sandy and Don. Sandy's broken-hearted repentance permeates her every comment. NOT MANY leaders who have fallen have faced up to as deeply as she has. When I read what a lot of fallen "leaders" and "starts" have to say about what they did, I see glib excuses. When I read what Sandy has to say about her sin, I see genuine repentance and true humility. Anyone who doesn't recognize that shouldn't recognize David's either. I wonder what you'd think of ripping the Psalms out of the Bible and tossing them in the bin.
When a Christian falls, it's a terrible thing, don't get me wrong. The wreckage is terrible. Sandy and Don know that in a way that you may not. I think they also know God's forgiveness in a way that you may not.

They are still in adultery according to God's Word.
Sandi confessed her sin but she never repented of it.

If she repented, she would have given up her relationship with Don Peslis.

God does not allow you to commit adultery then divorce your spouse and remarry your adultery partner.

God's Word is clear.
God does NOT accept this remarriage.

Just who are you Daniel Sidney Warners long lost niece or something ?? Get real ,,,do you no everything about Patty? Do you no what she does in her private prayer chamber with God... Didn't think so..so go sit down and shut up ...you have been rebuked. Christ is calling people into the Kingdom, not perfect people!

Don and Sandi lived in my hometown, Anderson, Indiana. I sang in choirs with their children. I also performed in the Character Counts tour with them. They are a wonderful family and wonderful people. So what if their relationship had a horrible start? They are both committed to one another and to God and no man has the right to judge. Their children were always nice, happy and polite and well taken care of.

When a man and a woman marry having the scriptural right to do so...a union is formed and God’s Word declares that this union shall continue as long as both partners live.

Marriage, being originated by God (Gen. 2:18-24) cannot be broken by man (Romans 7:2-3). It is a divine creation and it symbolizes the union that exists between Christ and His Church (Eph. 5:31-32).

This Holy relationship must be respected by man, and therefore, is not to be looked upon lightly. Being of divine origin and being a Holy relationship, it is therefore, regulated by the laws of God.

A scriptural marriage, is one which conforms to God's laws governing marriage. Conversely, an unscriptural marriage,(homosexual or divorced persons) is one which does not conform to His laws.

Man can no more stipulate the conditions of marriage, than he can the conditions of becoming a Christian. God has set forth those conditions that make marriage right; therefore, man is forbidden to alter them.

What constitutes a sinful relationship in marriage?

Jesus taught in Luke 16:18...
"Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman, commits adultery and the man who marries a woman divorced from her husband commits adultery."

Divorce and remarriage is a violation of God's law on marriage and constitutes an adulterous relationship. Individuals who continue in this relationship are living in sin.

Notice when the adultery kicks in...AFTER they are remarried. How can they be married in the sight of God if Jesus said their sexual relationship AFTER their wedding is adultery?

God saw them divorce their spouse and then come up to the altar again to make new vows to another person and then go on a honeymoon and commit adultery. If they are committing adultery on their honeymoon, how can they be married? I guarantee you, if you are committing adultery on your honeymoon you were not joined as a husband and wife at the altar.

A divorce does not free you and new vows do not join you, if you are still committing adultery after you have done all that.

Satan wants to take advantage of people’s lack of knowledge of God’s Word. Does anyone read the Bible these days?

What is legal in man’s eyes is not always legal in God’s eyes. Our Responsibility is to teach the Truth of God's Word.

May God Wake Us All Up!

50 years ago the majority of Christians would have been livid if someone would have suggested that marriage was not permanent.

The world has now fallen for one of Satan’s greatest deceptions.

"Look at the legalized adultery we call divorce. Men marry one wife after another and are still admitted into good society; and women do likewise. There are thousands of supposedly respectable men in American living with other men's wives, and thousands of supposedly respectable women living with other women's husbands." -- R. A. Torrey

R.A. Torrey (1856-1928)
Pastor and graduate of Yale University
Superintendent of Moody Bible Institute for 19 years

In the 1800’s, when the churches taught the truth, that marriage was permanent, the divorce rate was 10% and that was considered an epidemic!

"A wife is married to her husband as long as he lives." 1 Corinthians 7:39

Right on. As "Christians" today we exscuse the behavior because they are a friend or our favorite celeb.

People need to stop excusing her behavior. You say she is committed to this relationship? She was to her last one as well...on second thought apparently not.
She can be forgiven but that does not mean that there will not be consequences for their decision and she should step down from any leadership or ministry roles. "Christians" worship their celeberties just like the world does. As far as not judging her because we do not know what goes on in her "private chambers", well neither do you.
