Forgiveness and Faith

June 21, 2021

Jesus Christ said: "’Take heed to yourselves. If your brother sins against you, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him. And if he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times in a day returns to you, saying, 'I repent,' you shall forgive him.’ And the apostles said to the Lord, "Increase our faith" (Luke 17:3-5).

(1) Who are you to judge another person’s heart? Legislation determining what are “hate crimes,” and Media rejecting confession of wrong-doing are contrary to God’s Word.

(2) Jesus said, “out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks” (Matthew 12:34). We must assume that spoken words are “heart-felt.”

(3) Sin is a violation of God’s Word. Who are you to add arbitrary, man-made “works of penance” to make someone’s repentance to your liking? It is “godly sorrow [that] produces repentance leading to salvation” (2 Corinthians 7:10). Repentance is between the sinner and God. - 6-15-2021

QA: Why Is the Church So Judgmental?

June 11, 2021

QUESTION: Why is the church of Christ so judgmental, condemning everyone but themselves? - June 9, 2019

ANSWER: How can you see through the fog & smog of judgmental sinners and think condemnation is only coming from Christians?

1. It is NOT wrong to teach what is right. Moses taught Israelites that loving God means keeping His commandments and judgments. (Deuteronomy 7:11-12; Deuteronomy 11:1) In the Bible God has given His judgments about human behaviour. It is not judging to preach God's judgments, for we are not making that judgment ourselves (1 Corinthians 11:31-32). ...

2. Judging is wrong when we are harsher on others than we are on ourselves. (Luke 6:37; Romans 2:1-2)...
