Comments on: Quail Springs Church of Christ “Disfellowshipped”: More of the Same http://oneinjesus.info/2008/03/quail-springs-church-of-christ-disfellowshipped-more-of-the-same/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=quail-springs-church-of-christ-disfellowshipped-more-of-the-same Thu, 24 May 2012 15:05:57 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Ken M. http://oneinjesus.info/2008/03/quail-springs-church-of-christ-disfellowshipped-more-of-the-same/#comment-1940 Ken M.

When the lost see attacks on brothers over this sectarian view, people are driven away. And secondly, legalistic churches seeking to condemn their brothers for a practice neither approved or disapproved by the Bible has greatly divided the body of Christ and shown insane anger and the total lack of love. It is that quality of pride and self-hatred present in religious extremists that bring down towers and print ads in low-quality public newspapers. Gotta agree with Ed on this one.

Does it bring people closer to God, or does it drive them away? 2. Does it divide the body of Christ with divisiveness and anger, or does it bring it together in love? I think the answer is pretty obvious. There are only two questions that need to be answered on this issue:

No one is. But I think he thinks he is right. Don't you? I do. If anyone thinks he is wrong he should change right away. If you think you are not right and are wrong, then you should change. So yes we must believe that we are not adding to or taking from God's Word. I don't think the guy is saying that he is perfect. No one is. But I think he thinks he is right. Don't you? I do.

Really. Then how do you turn and do the same thing? These things are public sin and a public response is required. "Profound sinfulness"? Really. Then how do you turn and do the same thing?

As a matter of fact I don't read of him asking us any questions at all. We will ask the questions: When did we see you hungry, or sick, naked or in prison? This is the only standard of judgement given. We must, must get over our selfish, silly arguments (both sides) and get out and start serving!

But most would never admit or even see their own bias. The addition and subtraction thing will always be a quagmire moslty based on ones approach and interpretation of scripture.

There is only one choice to follow, you will have to decide by what grace you are saved and by through which faith. 1) Those who follow the scriptures. 2) Those who add to the scriptures. 3) Those who subtract from the scriptures. 4) Those who add and subtract from the scriptures.
