[Faith-talk] Legalists?

[Brandon A. Olivares]

So you are seriously saying that if you think someone’s making a mistake, you think it is right to continually push it down their throats until they agree? I think that is what is wrong with society. To let people experience life is the opposite of anarchy.

Unfortunately the latter is the approach many Christians seem to take, and so it’s no wonder why those outside of Christianity have such a negative perception of it. Sure if you like, express your opinion, once. Then let them do what they will do. Perhaps you are right, or perhaps they are right. Just let them be.

Loving someone does not necessarily mean that I will agree with everything that person thinks, says, decides to do.  If that were true, parents would just let their kids do whatever they wanted to.  (Oh, I forgot, lots do that nowadays).  Lol.  But seriously if I love you and you're approaching a hot stove with your hand outstretched, should I just let you burn your hand without saying something to stop you?    Blessings,    Debby and Neena
