Rev. Bernard stands and thanks the PSC for their
consideration, but he has decided to withdraw his name from the ballot. He is stunned by the lack of Christianity
displayed this evening and needs to go in the study and pray about this
situation and all the ugliness he witnessed. He goes into the study, closes the
door and falls on his knees. “Why is this happening God? What are you trying to
show me? What is the lesson here?” God speaks to Rev. Bernard and explains that
He wants His children to love one another as He has loved them. He wants His
children to forgive. He has designated
this branch of Zion for Rev. Bernard to exhibit these things. Go forth and lead
this flock as I have directed you. Rev.
Bernard runs back to the sanctuary.
“Wait, don’t vote yet! I changed my mind!” The voting had not begun yet and once Rev.
Bernard explained about having a talk with God and what He had said, almost
everyone voted for him and he won by a landslide.
