In my book Drop The Stones
this part made me think of Mary from Church....
Dealing With Sin in The Church.
Matthew 18:12–17
“If your brother or sister[a] sins,[b] go and point out their fault, just between the two of you. If they listen to you, you have won them over. 16 But if they will not listen, take one or two others along, so that ‘every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.’[c] 17 If they still refuse to listen, tell it to the church; and if they refuse to listen even to the church, treat them as you would a pagan or a tax collector.
Page 68 of 221... When I started to read this someone came to mind from the King's also.
Of course, like every other branch of Christianity, there is both good and bad. I have personally seen abuse and spiritual manipulation in our charismatic churches. I am still concerned with our eschatology and I have issues with our inconsistent politics and powerful ambitions. I have also seen people with mental issues pretend to be prophets, and men dressed in wedding dresses proclaiming to be the bride of Christ. I have heard unbiblical sermons preached through the veils of spirituality and seen Jesus misrepresented as an angry conservative who hates Muslims. #NotCool.
