So we would expect the leader to say something like this, "Hold on folks! Don't you remember the awesome works of our God? Have you so quickly forgotten how he rescued you from captivity and provided for your needs in the empty desert? Our God is the only God who can save! When Aaron saw this, he built an altar in front of the calf a...

Maybe you know this story or one like it. Maybe you had feelings of disgust, anger, sadness, bitterness, or judgement. What should the believer's response be to the sin of a fellow believer, even when the sin is particularly offensive or egregious? Not to be cliche-ish, but WWJD? Can you believe . . ?

I want to be brief today and will start where Rob starts, in his Preface:. But is that really the message? I mean is that the whole message? Because half a truth is not really the truth. Is it?

Really. I mean on any given day at any particular moment who is God to you.

They reveal what we look like on the outside. Important? You guys are hypocrites! But, we better be careful not to throw stones in glass houses. Do we look like Jesus or do we look like the World?
