A pastor in Bridgeport, CT., died of an apparent heart attack after admitting to his entire congregation that he had committed adultery (7th Commandment I believe), the entire congregation participated in the loud after service revelation from the longtime Miracle Faith World Outreach Church pastor.
According to the CTPost, Bishop Bobby Davis, pastor of the Harriet Street church since its founding in 1967, was pronounced dead at Bridgeport Hospital.
"After the service on Sunday the bishop's family asked us to remain in the church and the bishop confessed to us something that happened long ago," said Judy Stovall, an elder at the church. "He wanted to come clean with all of us. He wanted to ask our forgiveness."
Members of the congregation were very vocal with Davis just before he passed out, but they were shouting support for him, Stovall said. It was during this very loud yelling that the pastor just dropped dead.
Stovall goes on to say that: "Our congregation is hurting now."
Police have initiated an investigation into the circumstances leading up to the death, but have not provided any other details surrounding the death.
"If a man commits adultery with another man's wife--with the wife of his neighbor--both the adulterer and the adulteress are to be put to death."
