Then only explain them to a select few. Isn't that how Jesus did it? Ha!! Half the time, I don't understand what I'm saying. Easy, tell stories that most of the listeners will not understand.

Grace. How can I teach something until I LEARN it first? The older I get the more I realize I know a whole lot less than I was once convinced I knew. Perhaps that's a good thing. "Incremental teaching" goes hand-in-hand with "incremental learning". Whew. That'll preach, huh? Holiness. Grace.

The problem is that most people Christian and non, will surround themselves with those who will make their sin seem normal or not so bad. If it's pride we'll have those people who say,"You should be proud, look at all you have done." The next step then is that pastors need to have time to confess to other pastors. So that there is public confession, and I think that we should take a hard look at a "church" which isn't a radical community of love where sin is hated and people are affirmed. Is it the body of Christ that stones us, or does it help us. Tell a fat person to loose weight, and they just do it... right? Tell a sinner to stop they do it... right? It's a process, we should be carriers of grace, grace and standards of holiness. Love the ending. I totally agree about being incremental, especially when discussing things such as grace.
