On a side note, Driscoll preached a sermon on Creation this past Sunday.

I’m really unhappy about that – there was no swearing! Hello?? Can you post his potty ones?

And that “apologizing” makes all the difference.

I have also given Kudos to writers at CRN. In fact one was sending me his articles pre posting to get my opinion.

The other banned me from his blog… as I questioned his misuse of Luther.

What I meant to say was I have written negatively about both Ken and Ingrid, however I have mentioned Ken with a positive reference this post.

I have written about the teachings of others also but never about them personally. I have spoken in positive terms about the personal lives of some about whom I differ strongly as it pertains to doctrine. I have even alluded to the fact that MacLaren seems like a real nice guy!

I have other blogs which are dedicated to teaching and bible study and encouragement. I also have a Discernment blog. I stand by my attitude in my writings. I am held accountable by my denomination(which does not agree with all of my writings), my elder board, and the people in the congregation.

The church of the week is not even a church. It is called a joke.

I have not personally attacked Tony, who I consider a friend. I disagree with a lot of his teachings. Okay, most of them.

I attack a movement within the church which has a lot of false and dangerous teachings. Yes. I own that.

I attack the teachings/writings of men like Mclaren, Pagitt, Jones, Bell, Warren, to name a few. I do not attack them personally. There is a difference.

“. Instead of continuing to write about what is bad about the ODM’s, why not focus on what is good about Christ? Who cares if they keep on discerning? If they are not speaking truth, they will be judged by God.”

Have you been to your blog(s)? You have an entire blog devoted to attacking Tony Jone’s book. Most of your posts have nothing to do with the what is good about Christ and everything that is bad about what you perceive to be emergent. Then you have the guts to call us hypocrites! My friend, go read your blogs. You have a post called “church of the week” where you mock a church that is part of Christ’s bride. Your pot and kettle example is appropriate. Apply this standard you are calling for to yourself.

Comparing my site to yours, I have much less attacks on people and much more teaching and sharing the reconciliation of Christ to others..

It seems you also do not have a sense of humor…

I also want to point out that you are doing the typical, “iggy, you do it to” approach that is so rampant in your camp…. sadly I want to warn you as you stand before Jesus, “iggy did it too” will not stand up as a good answer to Jesus when he asks you why you judged His servants…

What I see is a real lack of maturity from you John. You seem to be gleeful in your put downs of others and quick to point out my faults as well as others. But seem to have no interest in doing the “focus on what is good about Christ” you desire me to do… I do that dude… will you?

Again, instead of offering me reconciliation you call me names… again… I just see a lack of maturity from you…

Why don’t you practice what you preach and hold yourself accountable as you claim?
