Woe to Them That Are at Ease in Mount Zion Evangelical Church (Part 5-A) –Gospel Light House of Prayer International (Daily Devotional service) #1637 with Daniel Whyte III in conjunction with the Whyte House Chronological Reading of the Bible Amos 6:1-4, which is part of the Standing Between the Living and the Dead Prayer Devotional Memorial Family Evangelistic Service. Daniel Whyte III is President of Gospel Light Society International “Crying in the Wilderness,” “Exiled on the Isle of Patmos,” and “Preaching the Gospel by any Means Necessary” with a tribute to Daniel Whyte III’s sixth daughter Danyelle Elizabeth Breedlove Whyte who did most of the podcasts.

1 Woe to them that are at ease in Zion, and trust in the mountain of Samaria, which are named chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel came!

Pass ye unto Calneh, and see; and from thence go ye to Hamath the great: then go down to Gath of the Philistines: be they better than these kingdoms? or their border greater than your border?

Ye that put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near;

That lie upon beds of ivory, and stretch themselves upon their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall;

That chant to the sound of the viol, and invent to themselves instruments of musick, like David;

That drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the chief ointments: but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.

Therefore now shall they go captive with the first that go captive, and the banquet of them that stretched themselves shall be removed.

The Lord God hath sworn by himself, saith the Lord the God of hosts, I abhor the excellency of Jacob, and hate his palaces: therefore will I deliver up the city with all that is therein.

And it shall come to pass, if there remain ten men in one house, that they shall die.

10 And a man’s uncle shall take him up, and he that burneth him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say unto him that is by the sides of the house, Is there yet any with thee? and he shall say, No. Then shall he say, Hold thy tongue: for we may not make mention of the name of the Lord.

11 For, behold, the Lord commandeth, and he will smite the great house with breaches, and the little house with clefts.

12 Shall horses run upon the rock? will one plow there with oxen? for ye have turned judgment into gall, and the fruit of righteousness into hemlock:

13 Ye which rejoice in a thing of nought, which say, Have we not taken to us horns by our own strength?

14 But, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel, saith the Lord the God of hosts; and they shall afflict you from the entering in of Hemath unto the river of the wilderness.

WATCH! THERE IS A “STRAINING AT A GNAT SWALLOWING A CAMEL” DEVIL LOOSE IN THE CHURCH! Daniel Whyte III, President of Gospel Light Society International, Tells People to Leave Bishop William Murphy and the Dream Center Church Family in Atlanta Alone With Their “Walking it Out” and “Swag Surfing” Dancing. First of all, Over 70% of White, Black, and Brown Evangelical, Protestant, Charismatic Churches Have Done Something Similar Over the Past Few Years.

WATCH! THERE IS A “STRAINING AT A GNAT SWALLOWING A CAMEL” DEVIL LOOSE IN THE CHURCH! Daniel Whyte III, President of Gospel Light Society International, Tells People to Leave Bishop William Murphy and the Dream Center Church Family in Atlanta Alone With Their “Walking it Out” and “Swag Surfing” Dancing. First of all, Over 70% of White, Black, and Brown Evangelical, Protestant, Charismatic Churches Have Done Something Similar Over the Past Few Years. One White Southern Baptist Church had a man flying in the air one regular Sunday morning singing Lenny Kravitz’s song “Fly Away.” And just across town in Atlanta, Pastor E. Dewey Smith and the House of Hope Church sang “PURPLE RAIN” when Prince died. Should any of these churches bring the world’s songs into the House of God and dance like they are in a club? The answer is NO. But all of you hypocrites are doing exactly what Jesus said to the Pharisees and Sadducees: “You’re straining at a gnat and swallowing a camel” when we all ought to be focused on the fact that we have “power bottom” homosexual bishops, men being groomed by male pastors, women being groomed by pastors’ wives and so-called female pastors, swinging in the church by the pastor and his wife and the deacon and his wife, men looking like women and women looking like men, and the demonic spirit of wokeism among our young people in the church today that is destroying their minds and taking their lives. Whyte says stop “STRAINING AT GNATS AND SWALLOWING CAMELS.” The church is in serious trouble and dancing to a secular song to illustrate a sermon is the least of our problems.

HERE WE GO! THERE IS A WOKE DEVIL LOOSE IN THE EVANGELICAL CHURCH! Daniel Whyte III, President of Gospel Light Society International, says one of the Aims of WOKEISM is the feminization of men, the ridiculing and destruction of manhood and the biblical patriarchy, and role reversal where men submit to women in the family and in the church. What Matt Chandler is doing here is part of the process, and he ought to be ashamed of himself because he knows better. Besides that, this is not what he should be doing, considering the fact that he committed adultery by TEXT just a little over a year ago.

There is something to be said about the degradation of our modern culture. I’ve always argued that wokeness and effeminacy go hand-in-hand. And not that I want to be, but that argument continues to be proven right, especially in the Church. Once you give up objective standards of truth and morality and embrace the woke culture, it seems like it becomes a race to score virtue points in the culture to see just how feminized one can become.

That’s Matt Chandler. Chandler recently posed for some photos posted online with some women wearing girly pink cat sweaters. Of course, you can argue that he’s just “goofing around.” But the reality remains is that he’s demonstrating to the world just how “comfortable” he is doing so. By posing and showcasing himself in such a manner, he’s signaling to the world, and especially other young men, that it’s “okay” to act effeminate in this society, and, in fact, it’s a virtue.

Daniel Whyte III says this picture above is borderline drag queen-ish, and is a shame before God Almighty in Heaven.

From what we have gathered from the WOKE effeminate sodomite/homosexual world, the cats on this pink shirt is very telling.

18. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

-I Thessalonians 5: 16-18

7 And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.

For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.

And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

-2 Corinthians 12:7-10

Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice.

Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand.

Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.

10 But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me hath flourished again; wherein ye were also careful, but ye lacked opportunity.

11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.

12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.

13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

14 Notwithstanding ye have well done, that ye did communicate with my affliction.

15 Now ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but ye only.

16 For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity.

17 Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.

18 But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God.

19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

20 Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

-Philippians 4:4-20

32 Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

-John 16:32-33

Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.

-Acts 14:22

I cried unto God with my voice, even unto God with my voice; and he gave ear unto me.

In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: my sore ran in the night, and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted.

I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah.

Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.

I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.

I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent search.

Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more?

Is his mercy clean gone for ever? doth his promise fail for evermore?

Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah.

10 And I said, This is my infirmity: but I will remember the years of the right hand of the most High.

11 I will remember the works of the Lord: surely I will remember thy wonders of old.

12 I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.

13 Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God?

14 Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people.

15 Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.

16 The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they were afraid: the depths also were troubled.

17 The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thine arrows also went abroad.

18 The voice of thy thunder was in the heaven: the lightnings lightened the world: the earth trembled and shook.

19 Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known.

20 Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.

-Psalm 77

WATCH! THERE IS A DEVIL LOOSE! DISTURBING Video Shows Man, Deobra Redden, Leaping Over the Judge’s Bench to Attack Judge Mary Kay Holthus After She Denied Him Bail. Daniel Whyte III, President of Gospel Light Society International, says . . .

WATCH! THERE IS A DEVIL LOOSE! DISTURBING Video Shows Man, Deobra Redden, Leaping Over the Judge’s Bench to Attack Judge Mary Kay Holthus After She Denied Him Bail. 

Daniel Whyte III, President of Gospel Light Society International, says this should have never happened. Going forward, all Judges ought to have a bullet-proof shield that surrounds them and a Sheriff deputy or two with a gun who could have shot him in the leg mid-flight, which would have made him grab his leg instead of the neck of the Judge. What Redden did was very foolish on his part, because he added more years to his jail sentence. However, when he gets out of jail, he needs to try out for the NFL. Pastors, churches, and parents need to pray “without ceasing” for their young people because WOKEISM is opening them up to DEMONISM.

The suspect’s defense attorney says that his client has been diagnosed with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.

 

 

The statement then goes on to say:

“We commend the heroic acts of her staff, law enforcement, and all others who subdued the defendant. the court remains committed to a safe and secure courthouse and courtrooms. we are reviewing all our protocols and will do whatever is necessary to protect the judiciary, the public, and our employees.”

The judge had a full court docket on Wednesday but after the incident, Marshalls cleared the courtroom for the rest of the day.

Several Months After it Was Announced That GRAND CANYON UNIVERSITY Was Being Fined $37.7 Million dollars by the Federal Government For Allegations They Misled Students About the Full Costs of Some of Their Programs, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission is Now Suing GRAND CANYON UNIVERSITY for “Deceptive and Abusive Telemarketing Practices.”

Several Months After it Was Announced That GRAND CANYON UNIVERSITY Was Being Fined $37.7 Million dollars by the Federal Government For Allegations They Misled Students About the Full Costs of Some of Their Programs, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission is Now Suing GRAND CANYON UNIVERSITY for “Deceptive and Abusive Telemarketing Practices.”

Daniel Whyte III, President of Gospel Light Society International, says if these allegations are true, students who have lost money because of the lack of Integrity of Grand Canyon University need to file a class action lawsuit or an individual lawsuit to get their money back and keep their degrees. Whyte says further if these allegations are true regarding this Christian University–Grand Canyon University–this is a shame before God and shows the University is not concerned about the students but is more concerned about the money.

Months after it was announced that Grand Canyon University (GCU), the country’s largest Christian university, was being fined $37.7 million by the federal government for allegations that they misled students about the full costs of some of their programs, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has also announced they’re suing the 120,000-student school for “deception.”

According to a recent notice on their website, the FTC is suing GCU, Grand Canyon Education (GCE) and GCU president Brain Mueller for “deceiving prospective doctoral students about the cost and course requirements of its doctoral programs and about being a nonprofit” while also engaging in “deceptive and abusive telemarketing practices.”

For the former, the FTC says that some of GCU’s doctoral programs advertise one price to finish, when in reality, 98% of students require additional “continuation courses” to complete, adding thousands of dollars to the cost of their program. They also say that “the defendants also used abusive telemarketing calls to try to boost enrollment at GC” and that “GCE advertised on websites and social media urging prospective students to submit their contact information on digital forms. GCE telemarketers then used the information to illegally contact people who have specifically requested not to be called, as well as people on the National Do Not Call Registry. GCE has also made illegal calls to numbers it purchased from lead generators.

Responding to the varied allegations, GCU claims they are being “unjustly targetted” by the government and that this is much ado about nothing.

THERE IS A DEVIL LOOSE AND THE DEVIL IS A LIE! Judas Preston Sprinkle Leads Conference on WHY WE NEED MORE HOMOSEXUAL AND QUEER “CHRISTIAN LEADERS”

 

THERE IS A DEVIL LOOSE AND THE DEVIL IS A LIE! “Judas” Preston Sprinkle Leads Conference on WHY WE NEED MORE HOMOSEXUAL AND QUEER “CHRISTIAN LEADERS”

Daniel Whyte III, President of Gospel Light Society International, says the Evangelical Church will answer to God for tolerating and accepting such people as Preston Sprinkle, Andy Stanley, and Carlton Pearson.

Preston Sprinkle, one of the original advisory board members of Revoice, the “gay Christian” movement within Evangelical churches, has been instrumental in shifting the church’s doctrinal stance on homosexuality and other aberrant sexualities. It is through Sprinkle’s extensive relationships with mainstream Evangelical leaders James MerrittMatt Chandler, and even names like Beth Moore, that he has been able to popularize what was once denounced as forbidden fruit by Evangelicals.

Sprinkle’s ministry promotes a number of false teachings on sexuality. For example, his ministry promotes the notion that homosexuals can fulfill their homosexual desires in nonsexual ways by entering into same-sex covenant relationships that essentially mimic marriage arrangements but stop short of bodily penetration. Other false teachings that Sprinkle promotes or endorses on this subject are that one can live their life as a “transgender” person, so long as they don’t “act out” sexually with someone of the same biological sex. All weird things, to say the least—but this is the prevailing doctrine of Preston Sprinkle, Revoice, and their allies.

Preston Sprinkle is hosting a webinar in January on “Christian Sexuality” on why we need more homosexuals and transgenders in church leadership. Now, before you jump to conclusions and try to argue that he’s simply trying to promote a biblical sexual ethic among people who “struggle” with this temptation, let’s stand back and pause for a moment and apply that logic to other situations. What if we promote pedophiles, or thieves, or the greedy, or people who can’t mortify any other sin into church leadership? Would we say we needed more drunkards in church leadership?

Among the speakers at this webinar promoting homosexual and queer leadership in the Church is Art Pereira, a man who spoke during a Revoice conference about how he moved in with another dude that he was sexually attracted to and they began a marriage-like relationship together while claiming to be “celibate.”

Here’s that video…really weird.

The Picture Above is a Beautiful Stained-Glass Memorial of a Modern-Day Man of the Southern Baptist Convention, PAUL PRESSLER, Who is Known as a Homosexual-Rapist-Predator of Young Men in the Church. This Stained-Glass Memorial is Normally Preserved for the likes of the Apostle Paul, the Apostle Peter, the Apostle John, and so forth. Thank God SOUTHWESTERN SEMINARY in Fort Worth, Texas, Had the Sense to Take This Beautiful and Expensive Stained-Glass Memorial Down. Below This Picture is a Saintly-Looking Photo of PAUL PRESSLER and a Saintly-Looking Photo of T.D. JAKES, and we Ask the Question: Do Either of These Men Look Like Homosexual Groomers and Predators of Young Men? Do Their Titles, One a JUDGE and the Other a BISHOP, Suggest They Are Homosexual Groomers and Predators of Young Men? The answer is NO! Our Point is, if These Two Men Have Credible Accusations Laid Against Them of Being Homosexual Groomers, Rapists, and Predators, Then Who Else in the Church Who May be Lesser Known and May Have a Smaller Title Such as Sunday School Teacher, Nursery Worker, Day Care Center Worker, Elementary School Teacher, Youth Pastor, AWANA Director is Clandestinely Doing the Same Thing and Worse Because They Are Not as Prominent?

Daniel Whyte III, President of Gospel Light Society International, tells parents what he never thought he would have to tell parents, and that is, just as he has told parents to pull their children out of these hell-hole public schools, he now tells parents not to send their children to church by themselves and to pull their children and families out of these churches that refer to themselves as homosexual-affirming or churches that are wishy-washy and soft on the issue of the abomination of sodomy/homosexuality, for their children are in danger of being groomed, molested, and raped by people who have been infected with this demonic spirit of sodomy/homosexuality and the LGBTQQIPF2SSAA+ agenda. Whyte tells parents at the very least, in any church they go to, go “old-school church” and keep their children with them. Do not put them in the nursery. Do not put them in Sunday School or a small group for youth. Do not put them in AWANAS by themselves. Keep them with you in church. 

Sad to say, in most churches, Sunday School or small groups for youth is an extension of the public school and not the other way around, so in many cases today, the church Sunday School or small group or youth group is a feeding ground for sodomy/homosexuality or the LGBTQQIPF2SSAA+ agenda. Whyte tells parents further there is nothing wrong with keeping their children at home and worshipping the Lord under the auspices and authority of a local Bible-believing, Bible-preaching, Bible-teaching, and BIBLE-LIVING church from home and, if he were you, he would raise his children in church but at home. He tells parents, contrary to what some will tell you, that is not “forsaking the assembling of yourselves together” because true born-again-saved Christians will assemble in church on a regular basis even if they assemble at home, which was the first church in the first place. By the way, if the pastor and the church are glad to receive your tithes and offerings from a distance, they ought to be glad to receive your attendance from a distance, and they ought to be willing to minister to you at a distance and consider you a church member with all its rights and privileges. And, of course, the pastor of the church can always visit you and minister to you at your house.

The nation’s largest Protestant denomination has settled a sexual abuse lawsuit against one of its prominent leaders who had been accused of allegedly molesting young men for decades.

Retired Texas Judge Paul Pressler, a Southern Baptist lay leader long considered a hero of the denomination by many, was one of the architects of the so-called conservative resurgence that took control of the Southern Baptist Convention in the 1980s and 1990s.

In 2017, Pressler’s former assistant, Gareld Duane Rollins Jr., sued the lay leader and conservative activist along with the Southern Baptist Convention and several of its entities, alleging that Pressler had begun abusing him while he was a teenager in a Bible study at a Houston church. The suit accused SBC leaders of knowing about Pressler’s alleged abuse and covering it up.

Pressler and SBC leaders have long denied any wrongdoing.

Earlier this year, former SBC leader Paige Patterson, a close ally of Pressler, and Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, which Patterson once led, also settled with Rollins. And last Friday, a special counsel to the SBC and its Nashville-based Executive Committee announced the Pressler suit had been settled.

“The Southern Baptist Convention and the SBC Executive Committee, Defendants in Rollins v Pressler, entered into a confidential settlement agreement with the Plaintiff. The Southern Baptist Convention and its Executive Committee were each fully prepared to proceed to trial,” the special counsel said in its statement.

The counsel continued: “However, several factors ultimately made settlement the more prudent choice. Chief among those factors was the horrendous nature of the abuse allegations, the likelihood that counsel for the SBC and Executive Committee would have to confront and cross-examine abuse survivors, the Executive Committee’s current financial condition, and the willingness of multiple insurance carriers to contribute to the terms of the settlement.”

No details of the settlement, which was first reported by the Texas Tribune, were made public.

The lawsuit against Pressler was initially dismissed due to the statute of limitations, but an appeals court allowed the suit to go forward after Rollins’ attorneys successfully argued that trauma from the alleged abuse had led to the delay in reporting the alleged abuse.

During the legal battle over the lawsuit, a number of men also went public with allegations that they, too, had been abused by Pressler. One of the allegations was made by a former member of a youth group at a church in Houston in the 1970s, where Pressler had been a youth pastor. Pressler lost that job after an incident involving a member of the youth group he led.

In 2004, leaders at Houston’s First Baptist Church in Houston learned of allegations against Pressler and sent him a letter warning him that getting naked with a young man was morally inappropriate and asked him to stop any further such behavior. That letter became public as part of the lawsuit.

Along with his religious activism, Pressler was an influential member of the religious right through his involvement with the Council for National Policy. In 2012, Pressler hosted a meeting of conservative Christian leaders at his ranch, aimed at finding an alternative candidate to Mitt Romney for president.

The lawsuit against Pressler inspired a major investigation into abuse in the SBC by the Houston Chronicle and San Antonio Express-News, according to the Texas Tribune. That “Abuse of Faith” report led the SBC to hold a litany of lament for abuse in 2019 and eventually to authorize a third-party investigation by Guidepost Solutions into how SBC leaders dealt with abuse.

THERE IS A DEVIL LOOSE IN THE EVANGELICAL-SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION! A Powerful Conservative Southern Baptist Leader, Paul Pressler, Who Happens to be a Judge Himself, Has Settled a Case With Gerald Duane Rollins Jr., a Man Who Accused Pressler of Homosexual Rape and Sodomizing Him While he Was Attending Bible Study at a Southern Baptist Church–a Case Which Included as Defendants the Crown Jewel of the Southern Baptist Seminary System, Southwestern, and the Chief Leader of the Miraculous Southern Baptist Resurgence, Paige Patterson.

Daniel Whyte III says my sweet Evangelical-Baptist-Charismatic friends do not like for me to say it, but the abomination of sodomy/homosexuality–the sins of Sodom and Gomorrah are now in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ. “A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.” White Evangelical-Southern Baptists can no longer point the finger at Black Charismatic-Protestants and Black Charismatic-Protestants can no longer point the finger at White Evangelical-Southern Baptists regarding the abomination of homosexuality entering into the Church, and sad to say, neither one of these groups can any longer point the finger at the Pope and the sodomite/homosexual-child-molesting Catholic priests and nuns, for this demon spirit has engulfed the entire Judas-Laodicean church, and all that is left to do is for either these big so-called Evangelical groups and denominational leaders to come out front, “humble themselves, pray, seek God’s face, turn from their wicked ways,” repent of their sins and abominations, and get back to their first love the Lord Jesus Christ or God’s true believers need to “COME OUT FROM AMONG THEM, AND BE YE SEPARATE, SAITH THE LORD, AND TOUCH NOT THE UNCLEAN THING; AND I WILL RECEIVE YOU.” People, we are witnessing the great “FALLING AWAY” of the Church that was predicted in the Bible.

settlement has been reached between notable Southern Baptist Convention lay leader Paul Pressler and a man who accused the influential figure of raping him several times decades ago.

Gerald Duane Rollins, Jr.’s lawsuit against the 93-year-old Pressler and other entities within the SBC concluded with a settlement and dismissal filed “with prejudice” by the plaintiff, according to The Baptist Press.

“It appears to the Court that all matters in controversy between Plaintiff and all Defendants have concluded,” stated Judge R.A. Sandill of the 127th Judicial District Court.

“With all claims, counterclaims and controversies now resolved, the Court is therefore of the opinion that the Motion should be granted and the matter dismissed as to all parties.”

The details of the settlement have not been made public.

The special counsel to the SBC and the SBC Executive Committee, both named defendants in the lawsuit, released a statement stating that they “were each fully prepared to proceed to trial.”

“However, several factors ultimately made settlement the more prudent choice,” said the two Convention entities, as quoted by BP.

“Chief among those factors was the horrendous nature of the abuse allegations, the likelihood that counsel for the SBC and Executive Committee would have to confront and cross-examine abuse survivors, the Executive Committee’s current financial condition, and the willingness of multiple insurance carriers to contribute to the terms of the settlement.”
