A sister’s sentiment
Steve,
I really appreciate the calm, courteous, respectful manner in which you treat others on this forum (I smell Christ!), and the fact that you have not in your heart separated yourself from, nor do you express anger towards those brothers & sisters who have chosen to misinterpret and reject your fellowship. (I read "In the Wake of the New Way" after I first came across this forum - it is incredible that your humble heartfelt and loving fellowship was considered "opposing" the recovery! That's just ludicrous!! These brothers so need our prayers.) I feel so strongly to encourage you to continue this investigative / informative work, and do not doubt that it is of the Lord. We have no way of knowing who is reading these posts, and who might be having the scales fall from their eyes as a result - perhaps even a Blinded Brother or two! I, for one, have been greatly helped by your thoroughly balanced and objective presentation of (yes, bizzare!) events. I am certain that our Lord is the source of the desire that "we return to the right path of receiving people", and also that He is the supply enabling you to accomplish what I'm sure is a huge job. I thank Him for what He has put in your heart! Stay on the TRACK!
