Perhaps the simple truth is there are many at either end of the spectrum who must put down others in order to feel good about themselves.

I preach Acts 2:38 and holiness, and believe them to be the only way to God.

But part of the fruit of the spirit is show love not mockery.

Those who have strayed from the path of holiness are to be prayed for not mocked.

And those who say thank God I am not longer a legalist often turn around and mock those doing their best to live for God AND those who don't meet THEIR standards.

Yes it is ironic.

Re: AFF Badge of Honor

I like the AFF and am glad we have all colors and types here...

Many of us do not enjoy bashing anyone....however bashers exist in every camp.

Re: AFF Badge of Honor

I think that most perceived badges of honor is the typical ultra-conservative mindset for being persecuted for Christ. You know - the self-righteous stuff that the Pharisees and Sadducees were good at in the New Testament.

Did I say, "I HATE legalism?". Let them gloat over their badges with pride.

Blessings,
Rhoni

Aren't you the lady who seemed surprised when her application to get on JP was turned down?

NW, LB... KH and others aren't immoral homosexuals! And they, along with the entire UPCI has been bashed on here.
