After getting into a verbal tussle with a fellow believer in the comments section of a YouTube video* today, I just feel the need to say this:
If your faith makes you angry, judgmental and humorless, you are doing something very wrong.
God invited you into His family to be His son or daughter, not His theological pit bull.
Although my opponent questioned my salvation, I did not return the favor.
Imagine calling a fellow believer's salvation into question based on a few sentences back and forth on the internet!
So I did not suggest that he himself was unsaved - but I did wonder aloud if he was getting enough fiber in his diet.
*If you're curious about the venom this brother spat at me, just look at the discussion under this video HERE by James White. The video highlights some interesting squabbles recently among Calvinists resulting from some creeping antisemitism in their ranks. You'll have to click on the replies under my original comment/question. I am "mrgrossism" and I asked, "This development begs the question: What is it about reformed theology that opens a door to antisemitism?"
