Pilgrim

I thought I was quite clear before, but perhaps you are just trying to "flesh out"(so to speak) more.


I didn't mention any names when I said those things. I think I also used the word "necessarily" when describing teachers understanding.
I am not a fan of Mark Driscoll and although there are things I like about John Piper, there are just as many things that I dislike. His misguided support of Mark Driscoll being just one of them.
However, seeing as how you have said the issue is the 2nd and 3rd commandment, am I to understand by what you have said that Mark Driscoll and John Piper are guilty of breaking these commandments?
I am not aware of either of them breaking them, but then again my knowledge of Driscoll is limited.

Let me state very bluntly, because perhaps I never said it strongly enough before.
I never said I support showing mercy to teachers, in fact I believe that what I said previously about going to these teachers in my previous posts shows this. I also want to state that sometimes it is necessary to rebuke strongly when one is sure it is needed.
