My safest answer is that we live in an archaic feudal system mentality. We build our own little kingdoms and war against each other as if we are playing Risk.
By we I mean me as well. I am definitely a product of my environment and upbringing. The way I feel disturbs me to my core. |
I admire your candor, even when you're "playing it safe."
And I also agree with Brother Hoover's statement above. We need to start looking at things from a bigger perspective. We are far too fearful and tend to pull our heads in like turtles whenever the vast scale of our mission looms over us. How about thinking along the lines of, "What would it take to see an entire denomination begin baptizing in Jesus name?" And then acting toward that goal.
Of course to change them so dramatically would require that we make some important changes as well.
