I'm suggesting that people struggle with their walkk with God no matter what we try to force them to do. No amount of forcing or laying guilt EVER, EVER gets the job done. Challenging people to go to Jesus with their struggles and to never give up and understanding that EVERYONE, even pastors struggle day to day gives them hope of victory!

Giving them an unattainable "code" NEVER gives them joy, only frustration and faux spirituality. I know that not everyone who preaches "outward holiness" is in that category, but I have seen it numerous times and have to deal with it in many people's lives.
