You:
So Paul said to follow him as he followed
Christ. So when we as ministry, don't fight with us and criticize us, but
you
don't have to follow us either. No contradiction here, if your pastor is
following Christ than follow him, if not than you are released from that
command, because your pastor is no longer follow Christ. Simple enough.
Me:
No. David criticized Saul; to his face as a matter of fact. He did not
rebel which is what EVERY passage about submission to a human means in the
Bible. When it says to not "touch" the anointed, it means to physically
harm them. It has nothing to do with questioning humans or even criticizing
and chastizing them with the Word...
Also, I am a bit confussed as to how one does not follow, yet "obeys"????
;-)
As for the 'coincident' of us agreeing... Have you ever considered in the
time we have known each other, that all we really disagree about is this
power structure (and the 'standards' of it) and ranking system of yours?
:-D
There's a hint to a greater truth in there somewhere...
Luke 6:26
