It's been over a year since my last blog post, so I figured I should follow up.
When I wrote the sermon on which the blog post was based, it was mostly for me. I was really struggling with stuff at church and tried to allow scripture to counsel me into accepting things as they were. Unfortunately, it didn't work for long.
The fact is that it's okay to be contrary. After all, Luther was contrary, Huss was contrary, Tyndale was contrary, and a bunch of others.
My problem is that, when it comes to church stuff that I believe to be wrong, I don't speak or write about it, for fear of being divisive, unlike the guys above who didn't fear. Instead, I often just let it fester into resentment. I know that's sin on my part. I'll just blame it on the "flesh" momentarily raising its ugly head, repent of my sin, and move on.
