Getting in an “I’m more Christian than you are” match doesn’t seem to me to be the most productive choice. We’re all fallible, and we’re all probably wrong about something. Unite on what we can. Debate if you want. But, foremost, rely on the Grace of the Almighty to correct for our inevitable doctrinal shortcomings.

Getting caught up in legalisms is a fool’s errand — and allowing those legalisms to get in the way of doing Godly work with people that disagree about doctrinal minutae is ridiculous.

Legalism short circuits the power of God which proves His Word anyway.

Politics being vastly less important than spiritual matters, I’m sure you’ve no objection to RINOs, correct?

There’s nothing legalistic about making a distinction between those who promote truth and those who promote something other than truth.MacArthur clearly sounds out the word of God on a daily basis over the airways. He has condemed immorality and upheld the gospel for years and anyone who knows him has no difficulty knowing where he stands. He doesn’t need to sign some meaningless paper to let people know his beliefs, they can be heard publicly.
