With that in mind, I forgive you, stripes.

God's mercy cannot be far behind.

Where is the transforming power of Christianity then? It doesn't really work if "forgive so you may be forgiven" is your only doctrine. Sin it up and spread the grace. Is that it? We can claim the Holy Spirit transforms lives all we want. Where is the proof if our pastors are out buying meth (and maybe more) and we just let it go in an "everybody does it" sort of way? Break the laws. Support meth sellers and users who in turn breed violence and all sorts of other sins. We forgive you. How far should we go? At least go with the Catholics. Molest the boys. We forgive you. Further?

Come on! This is not biblical Christianity. It is a perversion of Christian doctrine.
