I assume that people come to the church which I pastor because they want to become Christ-like. I assume their purpose is to improve, not be complimented. We come to Jesus for improvement, not just for acceptance as we are. If I were tolerate sin and error in their technique and lives, I would be prostituting the responsibility that I have as their sensei, mentor, discipler, pastor and friend. The ultimate result of universal tolerance is anarchy.
Total tolerance brings alienation and destroys community.
Love and forgiveness builds community. Universal tolerance weakens divine forgiveness and love. All rights reserved.
