Leadership carries influence, and that is why authority is always a target. When a leader accepts error, many people are affected by it. This is why believers must pray for those in authority, that God will preserve them, because the consequences of leadership failure do not stop with one person.
Leaders are meant to provide guidance, and it is normal to learn many things through leadership. However, discernment becomes necessary when issues are disputed. When one voice says one thing and another says something else, reactions often reveal loyalty rather than truth. If it is not your side, you attack it. If it is your person, you excuse it. That exposes bias, not discernment.
I have been in systems where I heard things I did not agree with. I stayed because at that time, I believed that was where God wanted me, and I had no better option. But when a better option became clear, I moved. Discernment is not static. When light comes and a better path opens, movement is required.
A person can be genuinely born again in a church that is spiritually in bondage. The past is not the issue. The problem begins when someone clearly recognizes bondage and chooses to remain there. Staying deliberately in what you know is wrong is where trouble starts.
