I understand what you mean.<br /><br />I suppose in my life I typically go to mercy and compassion over judgement. For example, when Jesus answered the Pharisees, He told them to go and learn: ..."I desire compassion, and not sacrifice, for I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners." Matthew 9:13, and then 12:7<br /><br />As things in this world continue down the evil slippery slope, it will affect true Believers. We must be ready to lovingly come alongside with God's truth in His strength to reach out to others. Sometimes we will not be able to tell who is a true Believer so we must still reach out to them as it says in Jude 22 and 23. I surely do not want to give up on dear wayward ones I know.<br /><br />Also,when I was blinded by devious "christian" people in the past, the Lord God snatched me out of that horrible situation! I am glad to be His handmaiden in whatever situation He calls me.The Piper's Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17509697472567235161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6185359764481159335.post-22653393598977614422011-05-19T16:34:03.710-05:002011-05-19T16:34:03.710-05:00The context is about rank idolaters.

The God I follow is a compassionate God who knows people are easily deceived by false teachers. He certainly does not see them the same way as he sees idol worshipers. This post is not about non-believers, but believers who have been deceived into Pharisaical teachings.Glenn E.

It is true that God laughs at foolish men, but because of God's character, I think we can know that He also weeps for those who are deceived and held in bondage to legalisms. May we lovingly come alongside those we know who are snared.The Piper's Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17509697472567235161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6185359764481159335.post-49016015857196633672011-05-18T16:31:28.972-05:002011-05-18T16:31:28.972-05:00No, dear, scripture tells us He laughs at the fool...No, dear, scripture tells us He laughs at the foolishness of men, and at the fools who follow them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6185359764481159335.post-83611337568159810232011-05-18T09:21:58.058-05:002011-05-18T09:21:58.058-05:00How God must weep.How God must weep.The Piper's Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17509697472567235161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6185359764481159335.post-36859560623158750872011-05-18T09:00:42.066-05:002011-05-18T09:00:42.066-05:00Sadly, that is an accurate list!Sadly, that is an accurate list!Neilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01351286913547309232noreply@blogger.com
