You may well be right, Brother.
But in a world where so many are looking to compromise the message anyway, it would be good if prominent voices like Brother Arnold wouldn't say things that give fodder to the compromiser's.
His statements along these lines are easily misunderstood, IMO.
There is a way to address this problem without sounding like you are de-valuing the message of the New Birth.
JA has always liked to shock people in order to make them think. that is well and good. But I wish he wouldn't leave things hanging like that the unstable can twist so easily to convince the fence-sitters.
