IN A LIFETIME, we are blessed to meet some great men in the Lord's work. In my opinion, Brother Kevin is one of those great men.I haven't had the time to read every post about his leaving the COG, but the posts I've seen, have voiced some sadness about it but without any personalized negative comments.Most of the world is not COG. I am and count it an honor to be so. Most of the world has not even heard of the COG. Many of us have and for the most part, our association with it has been a positive experience.However, all of the Disciples and Apostle Paul, ended up working outside their denomination in order to do the will of God. What they felt God speaking to them did not fit into, nor was it welcomed in their denomination.I have not taken the time to verify it, but I have read, that today, almost half of Pentecostal / Spirit-filled churches, are no longer part of a denomination. Of those, I would almost guarantee that the majority of those pastors did not want to leave the safety of the familiar denominational structure. I think the majority left because they felt more could be done for Christ if they were outside their denomination.THE OLDEST SAILOR in the Navy, a 75-year-old female computer expert, was asked what advice she would give young sailors. Without hesitation, she made a statement I will never forget. She said, I would tell them that ships are safest in the harbour, but that is not what they were built to do. Doyl
