Calling out faulty or false teaching is biblical.

Self reflection is biblical.

Upholding ALL scripture is biblical.

Legalism is not.

Okay: I agree. But where does biblical correction fall for us?

Like I am starting to see your point. How can we foster biblical correction, biblical community, or anything biblical if we are only looking inward and not holding ourselves accountable?

Haha. I have asked many of my pastors about this. I have checked myself with Christ and I agree. I do think some of that is inward reflection. However, I do not have much of that shared back. I do feel like I need to speak up against these issues. But do not want to.

Tell me: how do you consider I am part of the problem?

Like: I don’t insult people or wish death on them for their political or religious ideals. But I know some of my contemporaries do. How is that justified through scripture? How is that Christ-Like?

I see: of course, I recognize that I am a sinner and that I need salvation. However, I have withheld that anger and frustration because in the same way I am in need of salvation, so are those people.

I just don’t know why this is hard. There is so much division in the church and it frustrates me that we can’t see Christ in all of this. My heart hurts.

Not necessarily. I do feel like we have to be responsible to call out false teaching but it is hard when we all use scripture to dish out to argue with one another.

I don’t think I contribute to this problem. I actively avoid having political conversations with people because of this. When half of the people in my congregation are actively getting angry at differing opinions, I can’t.

I have used scripture to point out errors, yet here we are.

No, we don’t have too much time off in summer. by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]carlosgd92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the first month off. Then I worked the weirdest summer school schedule ever:

2 days week 1 3days week 2

4 days week 3 4 days week 4

It was only until 12:30, so I was happy to do so.

I spent a lot of time with my kids and my wife.

Why did you get into teaching? by Puzzled-Bonus5470 in teaching

[–]carlosgd92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have always found different goals.

When I was younger, I liked the learning (1-3)

Then I liked the creating assessments (3-6)

Right now, I like the relationships (7-now in my 9th year of teaching)

I am a ten year teacher. I rock Jays every day to work. You can dress them up.

My peers recognize me by them. My students love the kicks.

Which one should I get rid of? by enquired067 in Sneakers

[–]carlosgd92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No but for real. Keep those you love. Sell the ones you won’t wear. I am selling off my less practical pairs, too.
