My View

Posted by Minister David Nedbalek July 2, 2015 - #Goal #mission statement - 1,095 views

Dear friends, I am not writing a new commandment for you; rather it is an old one you have had from the very beginning. This old commandment—to love one another—is the same message you heard before. (‭1 John‬ ‭2‬:‭7‬ NLT) I believe that this commandment should be our goal or mission statement. I pray and believe that God is my judge, Christ is my teacher, and the Holy Spirit is my convictor. My role is this is to "love one another." I am not suited to make judgement about anyone else's sin. Although I openly admit I very often do make judgements about other's actions and even their thoughts. I confess this and seek and desire to be less judgemental and more loving and trusting. These are my thoughts, and I ask that they be respected as just that, the thoughts of a non-perfect, fallible, human being. Please share if you wish but expect the respect that you show. Thanks and God bless you.

Elder Sioux Chief, Gary Hare Using all caps does not necessarilly mean I'm angry, simply easier to read.

Rev. Anna Ruth Hollingsworth ULCM, ULC Gary, all caps really aren't that easy to read. And it does smack you in the face if you try. I believe you when you say you're not angry, and maybe other people are ok, but it's very hard for me to focus on the words and not the delivery. IMO
