Loo...David, isn't that what good business does? Look at how to capitalize on every opportunity? How much more should Christians see diversity—true diversity, not the difference between children of light and children of darkness—as an opportunity!<br /><br />Your friend sounds interesting. I sometimes do the same thing, in a different way, and others don't always understand what I'm trying to do. I believe that truth is only truth if presented in balance. Any truth, taken to an extreme without consideration of what balances it, becomes untrue. For example, God IS merciful. But He is also just. Either one, taken out of balance, makes God something He isn't. So when I sense a discussion presenting an extreme view, I'll present whatever brings it back into balance. When people aren't willing to see that balance, they think I'm arguing for only an opposite view. It's a very delicate and difficult thing to see truth in balance when we're out to prove our own agenda. I think your friend and I would enjoy a great discussion, if we ever had the chance!Anne Lang Bundyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02998809463390846323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1920734279360907280.post-27525364493008141912013-03-09T11:35:48.724-05:002013-03-09T11:35:48.724-05:00Thanks, Denise, for being a faithful follower of t...Thanks, Denise, for being a faithful follower of the words shared here!Anne Lang Bundyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02998809463390846323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1920734279360907280.post-29901833890602980582013-03-09T11:35:22.208-05:002013-03-09T11:35:22.208-05:00Yes, Mary, I think all the devil really has to do ...Yes, Mary, I think all the devil really has to do to separate us is appeal to our pride and the division comes easily.

In our faith, we really tend to be narrow. We read a Scripture, interpret it, and then find others who agree with our interpretation.<br /><br />I knew a guy who would take the opposite side of every discussion, just to provoke thinking. He might not agree with the position he took, but the mere presentation of the other side helped me forge a better understanding. <br /><br />But there is a big difference as you point out between diversity and division.

And Christians are sadly some of the most eager to play. We have to discern when God is leading us to divide. Loved the post!
