Mohler "When healthy discussions don't happen, unhealthy ones do. We need to encourage one another to faithfulness. We need to talk. We also need to think the best of one another.”
@ElyseFitz I love your teaching on Biblical Counseling, but this generalization lays the blame at the foot every pulpit and I believe that is more general and accusatory than you intended. (At least I hope so)
Examine yourselves, to see whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Or do you not realize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?-unless indeed you fail to meet the test! - 2 Corinthians 13:5 Are you trusting in Christ alone to save you and repenting of sin?
With biblical justice, forgiveness is given to the sinner freely, immediately and the past forgotten.
With social justice, forgiveness is withheld from those not even committing the sin, must be earned and the past is never forgotten.
Don’t be “these people” ... 8 "'This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me;
9 in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.'" - Matthew 15:8-9
Yesterday thousands of Christians sang theology that she has put to music. She would do well to recognize the weight of that spiritual responsibility to biblical faithfulness, and we would do well to consider the source of the songs we sing.
UNSHAKABLE - 6 For the righteous will never be moved; he will be remembered forever.
7 He is not afraid of bad news; his heart is firm, trusting in the LORD.
8 His heart is steady; he will not be afraid, until he looks in triumph on his adversaries. - Psalm 112:6-8
Men will never worship God with a sincere heart, or be roused to fear and obey Him with sufficient zeal, until they properly understand how much they are indebted to His mercy.
I continue to maintain that if the events that led to Thanksgiving transpired today, we would choose ribeye not turkey to symbolize God‘s abundant goodness to us. Turkey is that food you eat to be healthy. Ribeye is for celebration and worship.
“Being Authentic” in modern times means expressing how I feel and expecting other to validate my feelings. God shaped authenticity starts with who God is, how He feels and then authentically expresses how I feel right now and seeks to be remade by His pattern for my life.
