I am aware of how strongly and how often Jesus speaks against judgementalism and unforgiveness so that's been on my mind too. And I work in prison which is a different setting from Churchworld. But notwithstanding all that, you're quite right that erring on the side of grace can go from the benefit of the doubt to real and serious ERRING which is in the end unhelpful to those we seek to love and serve.<br /><br />Perhaps it's down to your starting point. Plenty of Christians need to move in the direction of "erring on the side of grace" as they've been nowhere near that. But others need to move back from a precipice they're in danger of toppling over.AnneDroidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15381935612631976494noreply@blogger.com
