I was listening to Chuck Swindoll on You Tube, speaking on integrity, to me it is a must for all Christians especially for those in Christian ministry, to hear what this godly man had to say on this subject.Integrity can be understood as someone who is honest, one who has principals, who is not corrupt, a person of soundness.In the last church were I was a joint leader we had someone sent to us from the domination we where part of.We were a small church ,not much growth ,this person we thought he was going to help us, but instead he wanted to take over the church,assuring us that the Lord had blessed his ministry.So we decided to let him take over the church, and we would step down and leave,which we did. It was only a number of years I learned that he was teaching things contrary to God's word . I know of another church were congregation money set aside for a new building,the Pastor on his own initiative used that money for something else. It goes without saying that none of us are perfect,but we are called to aim at that , at all times,we are called to be people of integrity. People who can be trusted to keep their word,to be faithful to ones spouse,faithful in all things.
