Very well spoken Paul and, necessary I believe for a "Stoic" like me to hear from time to time. I'm afraid I get too wrapped up and focused on the epistles and forget about the gospels. This thread has encouraged me to try to open up and concentrate on being loving and kind instead all "instruction" and to the point. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Thank you for your wisdom brother. Wow..... 2 elders who went to L'Abri! Sounds like you attend a pretty awesome church. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> You're blessed.

Dave.


Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. - Galatians 2:16
