Have read a couple of blogs and watched a couple of interviews about and with Rob Bell's latest book "Love Wins: A Book About Heaven, Hell, and the Fate of Every Person Who Ever Lived." and I have gotta say it is really horrible the way people are attacking its author.
Heck, if you don't agree with what the book is saying - you're allowed, but where is the love? From all I have read and seen of Bell he always seems to operate with honesty, integrity and humility.
That, my friends, is Christ-like...
Writing anonymous, slanderous comments and posts about the man is not.
You are allowed to disagree. But not to hate.
wouldn't it be nice if the church could get together and be okay with some of the areas that are a little grey? Wouldn't it be nice if we could be of one heart and one spirit, even when we disagree?
Instead we still seem to spend so much time hating each other rather then loving one another, as the word commands. We'll get there...
Have a read of of this little article - the title suggests Bell "punches back" but I say he responds in a well measured and very humble manner...
