Here Comes the Bride...............

[The Lemon]

I am going to go out on a limb here and trust that my brothers and sisters on this forum will not cut the branch!

First I want to thank faithit166 for her testimony and her transparency. I want to follow that up with this statement and encouragement. It is not our job as Christians to rebuke or reprove each ohters personal walk with God. If faithit166 says the Lord spoke to her, I believe her, I have no grounds to disbelieve her. This is HER testimony and I rejoice that she is living for God and not backslid. This is Her walk and it obviously is working for her.

I have no right to judge anybodys convictions and consecrations to God. Not only is it none of my business per se, but if I'm not careful I could throw a stumbling block in front of them by questioning there dedication and there expressive walk with Christ.

This is a double edged sword, because no matter where you are at in Christ, it is YOUR walk and we need to give each other space to live and walk it out. I have a problem with those who critique anothers standards (dress or otherwise), as I also have a problem with those who openly condemn those who do not hold the same standards as they do. It is wrong on both counts.

If you have things that weigh on your conscience, then you must deal with those things. Regardless of how they got there (preached, taught, etc.), you must reconcile your conscience with the WORD and with your walk so you can be at peace with your God.
