Be Careful


Be careful not to let feelings of disdain for people of differing theological or doctrinal position dictate your actions toward or treatment of them. If God resurrects them and gives them a place in the Age to come, would you want to give up yours because you could not stand to be around them, even though God could? When would you be willing to set your petty differences aside, even though you may consider them to be substantial? We dare not act as judge since we have not been given the authority to do so. There is only One who knows the heart, the definition of perfect justice and whose judgment is made in complete righteousness.

Post a Comment

Ground-rules for comments:
1) Identify yourself by observing social decorum and use your real name.
2) Please stick to the subject of the post. Introducing extraneous issues makes it confusing for everyone.
3) Relevant queries, informed comments and disagreement are welcomed, but don't use this as a soap-box to vent your pet views or to simply to be obnoxious.
4) State your query concisely and make your comment with regard for other readers.
5) Be honorable and avoid insults and slurs, and focus on engagement with the issues and data. Comments with personal attacks or insults will not be tolerated. Refutation, declaring an error, all welcome and appropriate, but keep it polite and fair.
