A molester abuses a child, possibly only one. It is not necessarily a pattern, nor is the person driven by a desire for children.
A pedophile is driven by a lust for having sex with children and is driven to actively pursue it. A pedophile usually has many victims.
Psychologically speaking, a molester can be reformed, but a pedophile, no. Pedophiles are on record confirming this.
Having said that, I see sexual abuse, whether a pedophile or a molester, as a theft of the child's innocence. Also, since the child is basically trapped with no options, they are (in a sense) kidnapped. The Bible designates kidnapping as a capital offense. Exo 21.
Should such a person be a pastor? I would say not. The fact they are still alive is gift enough. But putting them into leadership, to me, sends a wrong message. The crime is so light it can be forgiven to the degree of becoming a leader? We have to be serious on these crimes, not light. The person should be executed, or at least jailed.
The other concerning thing is whether this man told or was told on. If it is only coming out because of the victim, hmmm. On the other hand, is there proof? We must not condemn someone without proof.
