Philosophically the way of the world wether it be business,relationship,or personal growth is centered around oneself. Though there is nothing wrong with dealing with internal personal issues and this is definitely wise. The approach is normally from a place  of self aggrandizement. This has brought many people and nations low. Christ should be exalted and we as individuals, people groups, and nations should understand we are no greater than anyone around us. Any status attained or greatness achieved is only done by Gods allowance and direction not in our own strength or power, we have none.

Open mic day random ramblings nothing special, not that anything I ever say is anything special.

Some people forgive but hold the offense in memory for future use and condemnation, this is not Gods way nor how he forgives.

If there is going to be a discussion and if the purpose is to convince people with different Ideas that they are wrong , we can't criticize their tactics and do the same as though some how its different when we do it.

Spiritual Gifts Lets talk about it 

This is just my assessment not that I'm any political pundit nor do I think my thoughts on this are somehow better then any others. I tried my best to be very fair and objective I do have my ideological leanings as do we all. This was on my mind as I'm sure it will be on many others. This was a very chaotic debate and didn't really serve anyone in the area of winning over disaffected voters, however many of those are left if any at this point.

There are definitely times where correction is needed in the body of Christ. Most Times however it is the people doing nothing offering advice and criticisms to those who are active.

Leaders should be servants and examples, laypeople should submit to those examples  with respect, and the Bible should be the authority not men.
