I have no problem with any organization drawing lines as to how they want to be identified. However, I do have a problem when it is taught as salvational when it is NOT.

I would not want to cause anyone to stumble over something they could not adhere to. Yet, at the same time I understand that drawing lines is an attempt to keep them safe.

I think some have drawn their lines to far out, not even reasonable. That seems to always bring a self-righteous spirit with it.

Balance is a very hard thing to achieve. It seems to vary by many different opinions.

I know we are in the hour of deception, and knowing that I am hesitant to make any changes lest I be deceived.

But I think you are right Steadfast, changes are coming. How will it be handled? Who knows. I hope with love.

Good post, Esther. My sentiments exactly!
