If you do not have outward standards of holiness and you are cutting, cruel and cold you have accomplished nothing except wounding or killing someone...

LOVE is the greatest mark of a christian...I am not saying to condone sin in either camp but I am saying as an old missionary bitterence destroys and it magnifies faults...I have seen many people destroyed over bitterence. In fact I am wittnessing it happen in a person's life right now.
Learn to forgive....forget...and keep the right spirit and we can change our hearts and attitudes. Jesus would not have told us we can if we did not have the power to do so...
