As for this article I totally agree if we are only conforming the results are temporary. This happened to me, going to church for all the wrong reasons; friends, social hour, obligation and Sunday morning service is the time you get caught up on your bills, update your calendar and such. When all along it is a time to worship God. Good to see your back up and running. As for this article I totally agree if we are only conforming the results are temporary.

That truth will look different for everyone. Just like what is a sin for one is not another or whether or not to tithe and how much. We need to allow each person to grow in a way that are comfortable. The relationship with God is about love, compassion, caring and forgivness. It's not about living life to the crossed "T's" or dotted "I's". The rules are gone, just love each other. Everything else is senseless gibber gabber that gets in the way of our relationship with God. Read the OT, but live by the NT. The only leads to death! We must allow everyone to seek out the truth.

The relationship with God is about love, compassion, caring and forgivness. It’s not about living life to the crossed “T’s” or dotted “I’s”. The rules are gone, just love each other. Everything else is senseless gibber gabber that gets in the way of our relationship with God. Read the OT, but live by the NT. The only leads to death!

This cabaret mentality is dangerous. Why would you throw ourself under a bus to get someone's attention. We are to a new person and not conform to the things of this world. Becoming a new person changes us so that we may conform to the will of God. which is expressed through uniformity. There must be an amount of uniformity to function together.
