Very true.
And if that is the decided route (I guess the man resigned), then it means that it was a deal and someone cared. Which I believe answers the question you posed?
ETA: Actually if the pastor had decided to stay their tax status could be drawn into question and investigated. And from what i gather if the members that were told to leave or repent do not feel comfortable going back to the church for reasons regarding the rest of the church membership, their tax status could again be called into question. So Technically they couldn't lose their tax status because of what this man said but they could lose it if it was investigated due to the aftermath of the situation.
Although I highly doubt it will happen.
