Mike Winger’s work in recent years has brought with it quite a few enlightenments concerning the state of the Body of Christ. One of the biggest surprises? “Touch not God’s anointed” isn’t exclusively a Charismatic problem.

I wonder how many people would be interested in seeing transcripts of Claude attempting to dismantle my content🤔

Logical fallacies are a lot more fun to commit than they are to identify.

The Body of Christ needs more examples of what charitable and productive dialogue looks like between believers who disagree. Take a moment to ask yourself if you’re part of the problem or part of the solution.

Three ways your mind lies to you: Motivated reasoning picks the answer first and hunts for proof later. Emotional reasoning turns a feeling into a verdict. Identity-protective cognition rejects the truth because the truth costs you something. Be swift to hear. Slow to speak. Slow to wrath. Save this. Read it before your next comment.

I think this will be the new normal at the OB going forward. Folks will be publicly tagged and invited to a discussion. If they don’t respond, audiences can decide how to interpret the lack of participation.

Be careful not to default to “Jesus and Paul did it!” every time someone confronts you about your aggression and combative behavior. These biblical accounts should not be used to dodge other, more direct commands in Scripture to be gentle, not quarrelsome, humble, esteeming others as better than ourselves etc.

Most disagreements are actually misunderstandings. We just don’t slow down enough to realize it.

Once parties are in power, I don’t see the point in staying informed about what they plan on doing. At that point you have no control over what happens and more than half the stuff we get excited about or fearful of never happens. Wouldn’t a healthier approach be to . . . 1. Vote 2. Stop paying attention until its election time again 3. Research who did or didn’t do what they promised 4. Vote accordingly.

No matter how weird you think Charismatics are, they’re not half as weird as the stuff you read about in the Bible. If you’re not into the strange and bizarre, Christianity isn’t for you.

It’s incredibly perplexing to see all of us agreeing that misrepresentations/misunderstandings is a huge and consistent problem in the Body of Christ when it comes to working through our differences. And yet at the same time also seeing everyone so confident that they understand the positions of others. We get the moral credit for recognizing the problem, then immediately exempt ourselves from being part of it.

Once you are made aware of this fallacy, you kinda see it everywhere.
