A truly sad situation.
I agree with Sherri and PM, they were out of order.
I do NOT agree with all the standards that are taught by many as being salvational, yet I still abide by them, as I am still a part of this organization.
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.
