Don’t mistake my fealty for foolish blind obedience. It’s not. My faithfulness to my Christian group is founded upon all the good I have seen... and there’s a lot of good. I’m not ignorant of the bad. I just prefer to lift up the good and eschew the evil. 1 Peter 3:11-14

You don’t throw out the baby with the bath water.

.

Every group has its problems. Every group has folks who line their own pockets... and build their own little kingdoms on the innocent faith of those around them. Mostly that doesn’t end well. Ultimately they have to answer to God.

.

What does end well... is the truth of the Lord's Kingdom... that every group can share. Only what’s done for Christ will last.

.

At the end of the day many will live in shame and contempt... sorry... but the Lord’s not stupid, He knows.

.

Contrarily there are those who have loved and sacrificed and given unto the Lord. They have suffered... been persecuted and persevered through great hardships. These folks will reap a wonderful reward... an eternal crown.

.

As much as possible... I want to be in the second group. How about you? Romans 12:21
