Hey FAL, You Know I Love You in the Lord....
...but you are always doing your share of judging on this board.
I would like to point out to you that we have been called to be witnesses, not the JUDGE or JURY, or in some cases, BOTH!
I know you mean well, and I know your heart is committed to the Gospel, but you need to back off the heavy-handed judgment.
I was told years ago, that you need to be careful not to BRUISE the fruit. Heavy handed judgment can cause those who are new to their faith, and those who are caught up in living a worldly life to fall away and be very NON-PRODUCTIVE, in most cases, for the remainder of their life on earth!
I'm not judging you, just trying to ask that you consider your approach to others who are not as far along on the path as you may be. It doesn't take too much to cause others to become stuck in the place where they are at on the path, and never move another step further.
While this is a great topic, it has opened the door for you to debate those who respond, and cast a net of judgment over their head, heart and spirit. Sure, some get helped with your brand of religion, but I haven't seen that many on this board helped or furthered along with your strong-armed approach.
Remember, "Don't bruise the fruit!" :thumbs::thumbs:
I offer this in love...so I hope you take it that way :love2:
