My understanding is that this is not a correct statement of what finally occurred at the time Mr. Shepherd was let go by WTS and left the OPC. As I understand the matter, although charges were either pending or about to be placed against him, Mr. Shepherd left for the CRC and was not tried on the charges.

"I once sat in darkness, and waited for the moon to rise.
I once sat in darkness, and waited for the sun to shine.
I once sat in darkness, when all the light I'd waited for was gone.
Then Jesus came, and now the only true light, ever, shines in me."
