All right, all right...

I admit that I was posting with a pulse or two of anger there and I said some things that weren’t exactly Christian love. I do apologize. I should have been more respectful and put the best view on things.

Having said that, I want to tell you—completely in the context of being a fellow sibling in Christ, and not intending to slam you in any way—that you are coming across as angry and belligerent. Whether you are angry or not, that’s how you’re coming across. You aren’t leading or teaching with a spirit of gentleness. At least that’s how it seems from this side of the Internet.

This is bad, first because it’s God’s command that we restore any erring brothers in a spirit of gentleness, and second because it’s making Christ and Christians look bad.

Jesus and Paul had very strong words and actions against those abusing the Word of God, but we are not quite to the point where people are twisting the Gospel into saying that Jesus isn’t Lord.

Again, I apologize for my smartass comments, and I hope that we might get off on the right foot this time.
