Following Jesus

[Jeremiah Knight @iamrjknight]

If your biblical theology produces a spirit that is divisive, arrogant, smug, and condescending toward fellow believers who do not agree with you on every point, then something is wrong with your heart, not the doctrine.

Truth in Scripture is meant to humble us, not inflate us. The more clearly a man understands the gospel, the more aware he becomes that everything he has is mercy. Scripture asks a very simple question: “What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it?” 1 Corinthians 4:7.

Sound doctrine should produce firmness about truth and humility toward people. We are called to “speak the truth in love” Ephesians 4:15 and to correct others “with gentleness” 2 Timothy 2:25.

Biblical theology should make us serious about truth and careful about our own pride at the same time. When truth leads to humility and holiness, it is doing what God intended.

@marinaistired @the_legit_shag @WPXIAaronMartin @HealthAllegheny It’s good to be cautious, but always important to count the costs. Masks? They aren’t hurting most people, so I’m fine with that. Closing down businesses and destroying lives in case there might be a perceived threat down the road? I don’t think that’s a good idea.

@EverywhereErica Well done! A friend shared this with me and we both agree with you wholeheartedly. I’m also from a reformed church, so I got excited when I saw that you are Reformed Presbyterian! RPCNA?
