Each Experience Is The Proving Ground Before Us

Hi,

I read this article about your brother leaving the WBC I was just curious as to what your (the church’s) official stance is on him leaving the church and what he had to say. I’m not trying to create any trouble I’m simply just trying to understand everyone’s viewpoint for my own personal education.

Good morning –

No trouble, we are not ashamed of the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ!

Here are some passages to help you understand what this is all about!

1Jo 2:19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.

We don’t own salvation! Each experience is the proving ground before us! God controls hearts, and he has mercy upon whom he will and the rest he hardens.

Matthew 13:24 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:
25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.
26 But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.
27 So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?
28 He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?
29 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.
30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.

So, the position of WBC is each son and daughter born into this world will fill their appointed roll, pursuant to the good pleasure of our Heavenly Father, as he alone is in charge, and he alone will have HIS way!

Thanks!

WBC
