It is imperative that we expose false teachings/teachers to keep the sheep from being led astray. So correct doctrine must be promoted. It has nothing to do with "our own doctrinal insecurities." Read the N.T. and see how often Jesus, Paul, Peter, Jude, et al exposed, and warned about, false teachers. Real love for the flock will do that.Glenn E.

Please pray also that this controversy does not distract us from the Gospel of grace. In my opinion, we are not likely soon to get to the bottom of the controversy with definitive statements that will easily identify all errors. Leaders on all sides of the issue are extremely articulate, Biblically intentioned, and highly unlikely to state anything that (without being caricatured) can readily be identified as outside Biblical orthodoxy. The consequence is that pastors, professors, and students can become preoccupied with debate – making faith an expression of cerebral competition and intellectual arrogance rather than heart engagement and spiritual dependence. If our ministries only become battlegrounds for sacramental correctness rather than instruments for promoting the Gospel of grace, then we and the Church will have lost much. We all must pray earnestly for the work of the Spirit in our hearts to help us determine whether our efforts are turning the Church toward ever-greater introspection and isolation, or whether we are preparing the Church for Gospel-true priorities and progress. Each must examine his own heart to ask if what he is doing and teaching is creating greater love for Jesus that liberates the soul to serve Him, or is binding God’s people to standards of ecclesiastical correctness rooted in our own doctrinal insecurities and preferences.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6043971967398769903.post-57691589005773791572019-06-24T12:46:31.324-05:002019-06-24T12:46:31.324-05:00Carolyn,

Most of my refutes in the past were secondhand information that was so full of errors. But there is a huge difference of what the Catholic Church actually teaches vs what non-Catholics say the Church teaches. As for what I would refute now if I was a Protestant, I would probably use the corruption card. But to be honest I am not the least surprised because Catholics do more to turn people away from Catholicism than anything else. But any great institution has that percentage that is rotten, and Christianity had that even back when Jesus chose 12 apostles and one of them was Judas. The NT Church in Scripture was riddled with bad apples, so it does not surprise me that the Church has maintained that percentage, given that the devil attacks the Church from within. Show me ANY organization and I will show you a percentage with it that's weeds among the flowers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
