Michael Kruger: We live in a culture where the thing that is most offensive is not doing something wrong, but telling someone else that they are doing something wrong.

NewNo Jurisdiction

Tue, 02/28/17

It is more of an issue for us to judge in an area where we don’t really have any authority. For example, as a pastor, I have jurisdiction in areas of the sins of the members. I don’t have as much when it comes to attenders, and less in society in general. Judging does little because there is little ability to enforce any judgment.
