Recently I left a discussion group that claimed they were a group of conservative Christian woman. The reason I left is that these women were nothing but mean hateful biddies! They were more concerned with raking people over the coals for tiny insignificant things that simply didn't matter instead of being concerned with important things like exploitation of children, the starving people in our own country or witnessing to others. I was simply taken aback that these people wanted to go off on someone saying crap, but never talked about witnessing or reaching the unsaved for Christ.
Within that group I noticed something that I've noticed within our churches. These women, and so many in our churches, want to hold the title conservative Christian when the title they should hold is Legalist. What these people fail to realize is that you don't have to live by this huge set of rules in order to be a good Christian.
I've been away from those hard hearted biddies for about a month now and I can't believe how much happier I am! It's amazing how truly beautiful life can be when you don't have the shadow of legalism blocking your ability to see the wonderful life God has given you!
