I have no doubt that leaving was the most difficult thing you have done - as it was with the prodigal and for anyone who has left truth, myself included. The issue is not leaving but returning. If indeed you feel that by leaving the essentiality of
Acts 2:38, separation from the world and living a life pleasing to God; than you are open to deception.
As the only one in my family left serving God, I have seen the other 6 enter into various delusions and my father pass away in delusion. These issues are not semantics with me nor my personal interpretation. I was a backslider 14 years ago. I understand emphatically what it takes to come out from among them and be separate.
My remark was relegated as stupid, I will not descend to personal attacks however truth has never been based upon feelings (I will not get into a post modernist debate with anyone either). Truth is the word of God and a revelation of the same in which sincere, humble and thankful people partake.
