Dan Strader Divorce

Christian Celebrity Repentance, Episode 6

Episode 6 is now up at this link entitled “Restoration, Foundations, and Timelines”

NOTE: I went to MorningStar’s site early yesterday evening to look for an update and the last video I saw was entitled ‘Restoration, Foundations, and Timelines” I had previously cleared my cache and cookies before going there. Friday afternoon 4-3-09 7 PM EST, it appears that the video has been retitled “Entering Rest”. I’ll have to compare this video to the many at YouTube to make sure that the name was the only thing changed and not the content

In other words, Joyner’s logic seems to believe that since Todd was a ‘revivalist’ with a huge ministry literally means that Todd’s restoration will not be completed until Todd is back in the same exact place of public ministry as a ‘revivalist’.

I still do not buy this definition. The greek word for restore is “καταρτίζω / katartizoÌ„ (kat-ar-tid’-zo) ” (strongs G2675 which means

It still means that the one who is in fault is to be restored in right standing with God and not restored to the ministry. Todd is already disqualified from ministry because of his adultery, divorce, moral failures, and his heresies (Emma, meeting Paul in heaven, bi-location). In fact, along with being restored in right standing with God, Todd needs to also be restored in right standing with the church, and if possible restored in right standing to those who he hurt.

Joyner still grossly misses the point here. Todd can be restored back into right standing with God and the church if he truly repents, but never restored back into any ministry capacity.

I find it interesting that when these ministers fall, everyone refers to King David and Bathsheeba. There is a big difference here.

David was the political leader of Israel. The descendants from the tribe of Levi were the spiritual leaders.

The political position was not the ministry position even though the political leader heavily influenced the spiritual direction the nation took.

Todd self-exalted himself with the help of the self-exalted third wavers, NAR, and ‘revival alliance’ as the ‘current revival leader’.

Everyone in spiritual leadership in the Old Testament that profaned the ways of the Lord paid dearly with their life. Eli’s two sons (and many call Karl Strader “Eli” and Stephen and Dan Strader as “Eli’s sons”), and Nadab and Abihu are good examples of this.
