I believe God loves everyone Consumed and wants all people to repent and come to the knowledge of the truth so they can worship Him in spirit and truth.

Jesus said: Matt 15:14 "They are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind leads the blind, both will fall into a ditch."

Then Jesus said, Matt 23:13 "But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut up the kingdom of heaven against men; for you neither go in yourselves, nor do you allow those who are entering to go in."

Then Jesus said: Matt 23:31-33 "Therefore you are witnesses against yourselves that you are sons of those who murdered the prophets. Fill up, then, the measure of your fathers' guilt. Serpents, brood of vipers! How can you escape the condemnation of hell?"

Jesus was obviously against heresy and he was very serious about how he addressed it. He loved sinners and saints alike but he spoke and taught against heresy. Jesus is our example. Jesus loved people yet spoke strongly and often against heresy.

Don't set yourself up against Jesus Christ's example Consumed that we love everyone yet speak truth and denounce heresy from love of God and humankind.

I love you, I love the young believer these guys are trying to pull into their doctrinal error, I love the one caught in the web of doctrinal error and trying to pull people into it (though not what they are doing), and I certainly do love God.

I love everyone enough to share God's Word in truth and correct the heresy (as Jesus my example did). I don't follow you Consumed nor care to enable pluralism and obvious doctrinal error so I can be loved by all.

Jesus is my example: not you.

Check your own eye brother.
