I find your message about "owning your own pain" to be at the heart of the gospel and the most powerful relationship with God through the atonement. I LOVE that so many posts and comments I've seen from you focus not on changing others or Danny Kofoedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16686862165681527318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3270245506969727628.post-48853181807786384652013-03-14T11:30:25.226-06:002013-03-14T11:30:25.226-06:00PS On a religious note, the idea of communal salv...PS On a religious note, the idea of communal salvation is nothing actually new.

I was never going to meet their overly-stringent ideas of what makes one Godly, so I wished them well and haven't been back to the website. They aren't really my friends, though I imagined they were at one time.<br />SavvyDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02380401063646153237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3270245506969727628.post-23567839766302636242013-03-14T01:24:52.680-06:002013-03-14T01:24:52.680-06:00Don't give up the faith.

Dyer. I actually have not read the book, but a therapist I was seeing many years ago introduced me to the concepts. It took me a long time get the ideas from my brain and into my heart, but they have helped me cope with so many things in life, especially with my own view of myself.<br /><br />Now IGlenn Thigpenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16289698106336334148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3270245506969727628.post-12593091668810525202013-03-12T15:33:25.542-06:002013-03-12T15:33:25.542-06:00I was shocked at the end of your post to see somet...I was shocked at the end of your post to see something that has been running in my mind in precisely those same words this morning: salvation is a group effort. It was a second witness of the importance of the principle, and the focus. I get the desire to avoid the contention. I have way scaled back my participation in the bloggernacle, something that I've only participated in for a year.

Usually they don't last. Clearly, there is a lot of contention on the Internet. It's pretty much omnipresent, and has been going from the start.

Some people enjoy the controversy, not seeming to mind when they step on others beliefs and understandings. It can make it difficult for others to want to join in, no matter how honorable the original intention.<br /><br />I'Frank Pelletthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08830375239700028422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3270245506969727628.post-76331894252529951262013-03-12T13:20:03.879-06:002013-03-12T13:20:03.879-06:00SilverRain, you are right to notice that there are...SilverRain, you are right to notice that there are many who are more interested in being divisive than in real-life applications of faith and forgiveness. You are right to decide to pull back from that.
