Mark Driscoll on Speaking the Truth in Love

[adambomb312]

The angrier you are, the louder the Bibles bang, the more wrong you are!

[adambomb312]

I once heard it said, that to the Pharisee, the most important thing is truth, but the truth is that love is the most important part of truth! If there is not love, then there is no truth! In fact, the more unloving people are in their beliefs, oftentimes the more false their belief systems actually are. Bible thumping and anger are often the most excellent of defense mechanisms and fronts for falsehoods.

Mark I find this to be true with allot of ministers today. They become haughty and condesending. I have seen many a telaevaglist fall because to the lack of not speaking of love in a truthful way. Thank you for your words of wisdom.

Off the subject are you related to Phil Driscall the trumpet player for Christ?

Great video, Mark!! It is always a challenge to balance the sweet with the vinegar but those who have a heart for God usually will be able to receive it better...Thanks!!

Well said. The only solution is that Christ becomes our Love, and our Truth. Our flesh will never get better.

Speaking love in truthful way, or speaking truth in a loving way?

both. It's intertwined. I think that's one of the implied points of this little clip.
