Frankly if you think that is what an accountablilty partner is I don't think you understand what it really means, and I would jump as far as to say you don't understand Christ centered relationships at all

[SteveMcVey]

"Jump" is the right word, that's for sure. And I would say based on your numerous responses to my videos that you simply parrot what you've heard others say, without thinking about it.

I really like these videos by Steve Mcvey. However, I would really appreciate it if he used more scripture to explain these biblical truths and concepts!

I had an accountibility partner, i found that i'd just lie to them if i felt it was convenient for me.Lame but true.didn't work for me.

We need to embrace all the one-anothers of the Bible as we relate to each other in the body of Christ. This includes the mutual and repeated confession of sin (James 5:16). This also includes exhortation and stirring up one another to love and good deeds (Hebrews 10:24-25). Isn't this what helpful accountability entails?

I understand that the Church tries to be honest, but from what I've seen, any Church can be honest and sincere, but still wrong.

This is exactly what I've felt since I first heard of "Accountability Partner" in 1992. I thought, "why do I need to go to someone and tell them everything, when God already knows? Isn't my Christian relationship with God? Then why am I relying on men?"

But the Church kept saying I had to do this, or I was doomed to fall. The Church is VERY legalistic.

Praise the Lord! This video is so on point! For this very reason I left a church I had attended for 3 years. They insisted that I enter an accountability relationship with someone whom they would choose for me! I was labeled as strong willed, and this person was supposed to be good with "strong willed people. Wow ! insist on this relationship, and to top it off you choose whom I'm transparent with. Thanks but no thanks!
