Toying with the Questions

. . . and the answer is?

Published on June 5, 2006 By lobsterhunter In Misc

Was Jesus intolerant? Are acceptance and approval the same thing? Does loving someone mean looking past their sin? Is it possible to truly separate a person’s actions from their character? If Christ hung out with the “undesirables”, does that mean I should too? Can two people with opposing convictions maintain a healthy relationship? Does growing up as a Christian mean truth gets blurry? Can I quiet the noise of the church long enough to hear the Voice of God? Are there really any right answers?

Your bitterness seeps between the lines

Did I miss something? I never saw it- bitterness? Where?.

"complex, mature truth"

There is a lot reality injected into this one little sentence - that does not make him bitter.

Bitterness WHERE?

Please don't misunderstand. I did not mean to attack. I meant only to offer honest sympathy. I may be wrong about the bitterness, but that does not change my truth about the necessity of "simple truth" and seeking God in the moment rather than missing the moment as I analyze what we've labled as the "complex, mature truth." Yes, there's no denying reality, but that does not mean we must dwell under the weight of humanity's "complexities and confusions." I believe we are spiritual beings having a human experience, not the other way around.
