I just emailed my pastor about the evolution salvation topic that I researched so long and brought up on here recently. I didn't think anything about it. I showed it to my wife. She was so upset about it. She said I sounded angry and accusatory towards my pastor. I said Really?
I was shocked to say the least. All I had done I thought was present the problem and then present why I felt as I did from my research. I am so used to that from seminary. I then asked his opinion and if different, please give me references and explain how and why. We have discussed so many theological issues over 9 yrs and never disagreed yet. Many controversial ones too. But there can always be a first. But like I've said before, I do my research independently first.
She said to me, I know you have felt really bad this week and running a temp. Which is now 2 degrees above normal. Actually I had to give up going to see a friend of ours two girls in a Christmas pageant tonight due to it. I hope and pray I am not getting what I had over a yr ago. Double Pneumonia in both lungs. I'm not trying to excuse it just explain why I'm feeling so bad. Their is no excuse for bad witness for Christ. I hold myself to same Biblical standards.
As you know I am not a good writer anyway. But evidently recently I have been really coming across extremely poorly this week.
So all I can do is apologize from the bottom of my heart for it. I can apologize for the bad witness too. I hope you can forgive me.
I will try and do better in the future. My beliefs are the same but my delivery has been extremely poor and needed an apology. I hope it is accepted. If not now, maybe over time.
A sinner saved by grace thanks to Jesus!
