“This is exactly what I have experienced too. No matter how nice one speaks forth the truth, one is still accused of being “negative”. ”

Actually, I have experienced this quite a bit from other professing believers. Mostly when discussing things like Hebrew 10 or 1 John. They cannot conceive how serious sin is and believe in cheap grace. They become very upset if anyone dares mention that if one is in willful habitual sin then they may not be saved. I am amazed at how many professing believers do not understand regeneration or Holiness. It is scary and shows how dumbed down the preaching is these days.

Probably too much time spent on preaching about ‘roles’ than the full counsel of God. (Acts 20)
