Joe Campbell, a Pentecostal preacher who for half a century ministered to thousands of children across four states, has been arrested on child sex abuse charges, the Oklahoma Attorney General’s Office said Wednesday.
Campbell was charged with one count of first-degree rape and one count of lewd or indecent acts to a child under 16, according to the charging document. U.S. marshals arrested him Wednesday morning at Camp Bell, his children’s camp in Elkland, Missouri, and took him to the Greene County jail in Springfield, where he was awaiting transfer to Oklahoma. If convicted, he faces up to life in prison.
How can anyone believe in God and his love for everyone when people of the church can get away with raping and abusing children for over 50 years? And why is it so common with Christians that are racist, greedy and liars? What happened to the 10 commandments? I feel like the 10 commandments are the bare minimum of what you should follow as a Christian.
