Paul's Passing Thoughts

Protestantism is all about condemnation. To tell a believer to focus on sin is to keep him under condemnation. Condemnation is about death, judgment, and fear.

But Christ came to give LIFE and to give it more abundantly. The New Birth is characterized by obedience and love, not fear and condemnation.

    And in essence, rejoicing in evil. No? 1Corintians 13:6.

    And…funny how being under condemnation is the antithesis of love. Paul wrote that love doesn’t rejoice in evil. But if you are under condemnation you do just that.
