There has been some interesting stuff linking Haggard’s behavior and his ideas. Great. But I can easily think of a stalwart Reformed PCA minister caught in a public sexual scandal (involving criminal charges before the civil magistrate). This was a person known nationally for being a defender of Reformed Orthodoxy.

When these things happen, they are supposed to serve as object lessons for other ministers to fear (1 Tim 5.20). We are not well served with a denominational press that does not report such things, but leaves us to find out for ourselves and allows us to easily proclaim that the public scandals that are reported among Evangelicals are due to their departure from orthodoxy.
