Furthermore:
I have been taken advantage of by pastors.
I have been wronged by elders.
But that would not excuse me if I decided I would no longer submit to either my pastor or elders. In the judgment, God would not say, "Well, son, I am going to overlook your willfullness and rebellion because I know how bad you were hurt. There, there."
Here comes another revelation: I have been done wrong by some bum, supposed-to-be saints.
Would that excuse me being suspicious of God's people, and mistreating them because of my scars and wounds? Not on your life.
The fact is, God has given us the prescription for dealing with wrongs done to us. It's called forgiveness, and it works every time it's tried.
