Deacons
We understand that the 7 or 8 elders that have caused a split at Madison Church of Christ have been formally asked to step down, or be disfellowshipped.
Talked about rebuking Ben Jones Sunday!
To rebuke - criticize or reprove sharply; reprimand.
To rebuke/reprove Ben Jones, then Ben Jones must have done a misdeed.
To define that misdeed those who will rebuke him must find applicable scriptures.
What Ben did was to give each and every Madison Church of Christ member an opportunity to ask for forgiveness or repentance for causing division or for allowing division to occur.

Sermon
Second in a three part series of Frank Scott being a talking head for a canned and animated sermon on Joy and entertainment. The words "Corporate Worship" and Joy and entertainment were used extensively. Interesting!
The Deacons headed by Ben Jones nicely and in a very godly way asked the leaders to step down and let the Church elect new leadership. (page 51)

Today according to an announcement made by everyone's favorite elder Russ Kersten, the church has been hijacked by all the concerned members, deacons and I guess that includes the 5 elders that have been holding out against them.
More details to follow, hopefully.
Is HiJack a chargable offense in the Church?
