Whether that is his intent or not, even the secular world has noticed his penchant for what would seem to be less-than-holy speech and conduct.Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16971046950550780924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5970683153008645393.post-12522803927904235922009-06-27T16:59:15.283-05:002009-06-27T16:59:15.283-05:00Let's examine our criticism.

Does it exhibit any of the fruits of the Spirit? <br /><br />Or does it jump alongside the devil and shoot another flaming arrow? I have made that error countless times, not worth it. I hope your pondering of Driscoll will end at the cross, where Jesus died for sinners such as you, I, and Driscoll.<br /><br />A.W. Tozer spoke concerning this matter<br /><br />"Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, and slander,<br />as well as all types of malicious behavior." Ephesians 4:31-32<br /><br />Dispositional sins are fully as injurious to the Christian cause<br />as the more overt acts of wickedness. These sins are as many<br />as the various facets of human nature. Just so there may be<br />no misunderstanding, let us list a few of them: sensitiveness,<br />irritability, churlishness, faultfinding, peevishness, temper,<br />resentfulness, cruelty, uncharitable attitudes; and of course<br />there are many more. These kill the spirit of the church and<br />mar the witness of the church in the community. Many unsaved<br />people have been turned away and embittered by manifestations<br />of ugly dispositional flaws in the lives of the very people who<br />were trying to win them.<br /><br />Unsaintly Saints are the tragedy of Christianity!<br /><br />"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness,<br />goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control."
