Amen...well said...there is a time to confront those types that are trying to degrade the gospel of the grace of Christ. Paul called them the "dogs of the circumcision"..I noticed he didn't say anyone's name specifically......but of course those "dogs" would be offended even if he didn't name them personally.
Why?..Because the truth bears witness against them and they are offended.....that's when they will attack you personally...it's the nature of the beast...of course we are in no way perturbed at their attacks....we expect them.....it goes with preaching the gospel....

On edit: I rejoice for people when they come to understand the fullness of God's grace. Its not about dominating people; I truly want people to embrace the grace. Some people have the veil removed, others don't. More often than not, those who don't are very Pharisaic in their demeanor, and that's when I meet force with force. My love remains, but my diplomacy usually doesn't.
