Men are to set the example in spiritual leadership—in their lives and through their words.

I pulled this quote out of one of HPK’s posts. I was looking for the fruit that followed from this poster since this is what he believed must come through men alone. Unfortunately the posts that I didn’t allow through from this poster were not a good example of such spiritual leadership. Mocking name calling is not appropriate.

Scripture gives us the standard:

2 Timothy 2:23 But refuse foolish and ignorant speculations, knowing that they produce quarrels.
2 Timothy 2:24 The Lord’s bond-servant must not be quarrelsome, but be kind to all, able to teach, patient when wronged,
2 Timothy 2:25 with gentleness correcting those who are in opposition, if perhaps God may grant them repentance leading to the knowledge of the truth,
2 Timothy 2:26 and they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, having been held captive by him to do his will.

I trust the Holy Spirit will work on his heart so that he eventually will meet the standard that God sets.
