Reflecting on my limited knowledge of this I think that one of the things that's happened is that the church has worked to the lowest common denominator on things like this having had teaching on it that over-simplifies individual situations. When I think (with terror) how much I DON'T hear when people are teaching principles, (and I'm a fairly good listener and note-taker), I'm not surprised this has happened. <br />I'm not saying not to be led by Holy Spirit to minister to others but as you say, love and care has to be the bottom line rather than trying to formularise things and get them 'right'. <br />But it works both ways. I worked in mental health for a short time and I always remember a poor man who only found peace when reading his bible - which was taken away from him by his nurses because they saw it as a sign of his psychosis. <br />JJanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14493854641074576762noreply@blogger.com
