As always Deb and Dee over at the wartburgwatch.com have put up a wonderful and thought provoking post. Will give a warning here, this post is about Driscoll so therefore as you would imagine it can be a little explicit. Here is the link: http://thewartburgwatch.com/2011/08/29/mark-driscoll-i-watch-molestations-and-affairs-in-progress/#comment-26170
After reading Deb & Dee’s thoughts and looking over the comments I cannot help but feel unsettled. How is it that this man who is a leader can get away with saying stuff like this at the pulpit and still get backed up by the other RBD (Reformed Big Dogs)? Where is the integrity of these men and why aren’t they calling Driscoll out on the crap he pulls? Granted, I think someone mentioned this discussion was given a while ago but Driscoll continues to say questionable things.
Can I just say that we are letting the Bride of Christ get sullied by men like this? Why have we become so passive? If a regular congregant were to try and even speak some of what Driscoll has said I am sure there would be sharp repercussions yet we give leniency to leaders? Talk about showing partiality. How easily we have we become duped by men?
We as individuals have a voice and as a congregation we have an even louder voice yet we refuse to use it. Why is that? Do we really crave idols that badly that we let men preach obscene things like this or lies from the pulpit?
May God have mercy on us as we let our eyes become fixated on a mere human instead of Him.
