In response to John MacArthur's book:

Walking with God.....And He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness."

Quote
"We sense that something magnificent is afoot. We are intrigued by the chaos. We are willing to risk significant change in order to create local expressions of the kingdom of God that are burning with missional passion and practice. We want to explore the meaning of the chaos, the vision of a preferred future, the challenge of being "church."

Ewwww...I've heard it described a lot of ways, but never like that.
B~
Bruce,
I'll second that ewwww!
...about as mean-spirited as you can get :/...
It would be funny to me if it wasn't so.......beneath Christ. There's just no need for mud-slingin' in the Kingdom...or slingin' anything else either! Ick...!
ewww, I agree with Robin.
Yeah ... at this point, I don't think any further response to MacArthur is required. The people who listen to him aren't going to be persuaded otherwise and those who don't listen ... um ... don't listen.
Well said Robin. I don't understand the need for mudslinging at fellow believers.
Me too Lyn.
Sonja,
So true, those who listen won't believe anything contrary to what he says, and the rest of us give no credibility to his misinformed opinions.
How could you possibly think that is mudslinging though...seems like there's a lot of paranioa around here.
kim,
The quote itself isn't mudslinging, but rather a response to the mudslinging in the book.
um, well then, a girl leaves the blogosphere for a few weeks and comes back to books about skid marks and posts about mudslinging...not sure those two metaphors belong in the same sentence, then again, they fit perfectly together in a gross, ew kind of way.
Argh. Just yesterday I was asking God to give me grace for the graceless, love for the loveless, and a tender heart for the mean-spirited. I guess I better go pray again....
Pam,
I guess I posted this because I would rather laugh it off than take it seriously. I wouldn't recommend reading MacArthur's book as an exercise in extending grace. ;)
Hey, that's my former pastor!
