Me? Critical?

By Bruce W. Robida

 

 

I have often been characterized as one who is very critical when it comes to religious views.  How should I respond to that charge?  Of course I’m critical!  I will always be critical of religious views and opinions that are anti-Christian or anti-biblical, especially when they originate with Christians.  It is the responsibility of every believer to be critical of wrong thinking, but especially wrong teaching, otherwise deception will run rampant, even in our Churches. 

What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? God will judge those outside. "Expel the wicked man from among you."1 Cor. 5:12-13

Two or three prophets should speak, and the others should weigh carefully what is said. 1 Cor. 14:29

The Church needs people to be bold enough to stand up to those anti-Christian, anti-biblical views, and correct the preacher/teacher/believer according to the Scriptures.

All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. 2 Timothy 3:16-17

So yes, I am critical, but appropriately so.
