I understand that it goes both ways. Many times conservative Apostolics judge and condemn those who do not hold to the same standards or levels of conformation as they. Also, those who practice certain levels of liberty often mock and judge those on the other side of the spectrum. I find this disheartening.

Romans 14, 1 Corinthians 8:9, Galatians 5 all speak to the biblical principles of the laws of liberty. Is open mockery of things that men and women hold to as principles of godly living acceptable to God? I value the discussion here. It's why I signed up. I appreciate the open discussion and honest debate. When we digress into the mockery of things that people here hold dear, however, does it displease the God who has granted us liberty over tradition?
