Terri,

Regarding your comment #132, thank you for keeping up on the CARM discussion board and your comments here. I fully agree with you regarding your observations. I also really appreciate the patient attitude that comes across from the egalitarians on Matt’s discussion board especially those who post here too! The way I figure it, this is the way that will plant seeds and change people for the good. It isn’t sometimes what you say but how you say it. The barbs that fly from the complementarian posters would cause me to pause and consider the source if I was a silent watcher on Matt’s discussion board. The lack of love speaks louder than their arguments. I really don’t understand how they think they can influence others for the good without a spirit of compassion and love. I know that I for one need kindness to get past any of my blind spots. I learn from those who are patient and kind and God’s way is always the way of the fruit of the Spirit. Those who refuse to show this fruit in their discussions seem to me to be just a clanging bell that will be ignored.
