"Well, I threw it all to the four winds and what remains is a simple child like faith in and love for Jesus."
Observer, I really treasure your position and that
above witness of yours.I admit, very often it becomes very "confusing" for us little minds and the peace of God ultimately passeth all our understanding...same I think, goes for real joy and real love...you can't put that in the "mind-box"
However I think, bad reasoning, bad theology often stumbles sooner or later through it's own evident weaknesses...similar to TF, where things simple don't jive.
I don't belong to any particular church since I left...I guess I am a burned child...but I do fellowship and I do see with some frustration (in the past), how many a denomination has done similar mistakes than TF
I am not to order anyone around (who am I anyway), who is (or says so) my brother or sister in Christ, but if someone has a take or lifestyle I don't see portrayed in the Gospel, I have the possibility to say so and ultimately withdraw in fellowship from that person...
A stance I see upheld in the Gospel and letters.
