Re: Strong Christians using Pearls
You guys have great insight. I think it is so easy to put on a "strong Christian" outside. I have seen that a lot in Christian circles. I guess I fall into a trap of seeing someone who appears to be a "strong" Christian and comparing myself to them. Like, they never miss church and I do, I MUST be a bad Christian. And it is really silly. We are all on our own path with Jesus.
I guess what just bugs me more than people just using Pearl methods is that they use them and they talk about how "biblical" it is or how "biblical" they are for using them. And those evil non-Christians who don't believe in "biblical" training who are against spanking are against them. When we all believe here that spanking is not biblical and not right. There ARE Christians who do agree with those non-Christians who don't spank.
I guess as someone said it is blind spot, which I know I have too.
