What say you?
So.. you think it would be a better show if they were nekkid?
Legalism is an antithesis to the Gospel.
(So is antinomianism, of course).
It’s all about the heart. If you want to get down to finding the verse that “raises the bar” morally, doesn’t Proverbs say that it is the eyes of women that entice men?
So...not even the Islamists are holy enough...what with allowing the eyes to be shown?
It’s all about the heart. It’s all about loving Christ. Yes, our outer appearances might change and become refined with that. But if you start with the outer and hope to work back in to the heart...well that isn’t following Jesus. It is the religion of the Pharisees.
I do think that the conservative homeschooling culture has suffered from fits of legalism and that is why you see some backlash out there (ie, web sites promoting healing, etc.).
I don’t think the Duggars are a HUGE problem. But obviously Doug Phillips was and maybe still is, and so was and maybe still is Gothard.
That’s my personal opinion. Don’t mean to offend anyone...love to all freepers, especially homeschoolers!
