What the?????Posted : 15 Sep, 2013 09:19 AMMcubed, I know a few people who I disagree with greatly, yet we're still able to edify and teach each other, because we have the love of Christ that unites us and also love for each other. The problem arises over vain disputes and insults and condemnation, which are all human and fleshy tendencies, usually coming in when people think that they are somehow better than everybody else. The way my friends whom I disagree with are able to still view and value me as a brother in Christ, is because even though they believe in the "election", etc, they also understand that they do not know who is elected, and they see the fruits in my life as evidence that God is leading me on the same path they are, even if I have not progressed as far as they think they have, so they can come to me in gentleness and equality, and we can talk about scripture and truth in a civil tone because we look at each other's motives and not how many bible classes we've taken or how long we've been "following" the truth. We all WANT to know the truth and we all WANT to follow Christ, and we are only responsible to Christ for those motivations and progression. They can tell me they believe I'm wrong, and show me bible verses their views, and I actually enjoy listening to them and value their opinions. So why all the fighting on here? Well, the majority of it is that we don't all know each other personally, and we like to assume that we can tell what a person is all about by some text that they post, but I really think that its just a lack of love and patience for each other. It is hard to build that kind of relationship thru text anyway, but I think that's where Jesus' admonition comes in. We're supposed to treat everyone the same. Everyone has the same value and potential in God's eyes, and they are all to be treated better than we want to be treated. |
