If the unwashed are saved, we need to know about that. If they are lost, they need to know about it. We contest those who have not been obedient to the faith because we desperately desire their redemption, and not out of ill-will or sectarian pride. When Garrett and his cohorts argue that we should overlook flawed faith, they are enemies of both those they seek to excuse and the cross of Christ. They trample the blood of the Lamb of God under foot in the name of love.
True love is tough love.
It is bold to show the sinner his plight and to point to a crimson cross. It will not compromise the Scriptures. It will not bid Godspeed to a working of error, even on the pretext of knowing the difference between fish and fish-bones. It will not betray the sinless Son of God even for 30 pieces of silver. We have no other incentive.
