Is it just me, or is there a silly thread somewhere with thousands of posts? Lol

Imagine how Moses must have felt when he had been in the presence of Almighty God, then went down to see the Hebrews worshipping the golden calf.
That's what it's like when you're in your Bible, but then you go to a "Christian" Facebook group.

I'm scared of Facebook because of privacy concerns.

One lady railed at me for the Scripture I posted on how we are to break fellowship with "Christians" who live in sin.
She said I was harsh, hardhearted, judgemental...and in danger of judgement.
Another said the word sinner is a toxic cultural Christian term.
😤
I think I handled it well through God's grace. But oh my gosh.
I need to make a rule for myself: never go on social media right after special God time.
I dunno, the contrast between God's presence and the complaining was just so sharp

It's a Christian mental health group.
I see some encouraging posts and posts that have substance.
But I think you'd be shocked at some of the advice people give.

The leaders may be involved in deleting posts but it's not like John, intervening with posts. I think from now on, if someone argues directly against Scripture, I'll ignore it.

Not all professing Christians follow the Bible or even see it as God's Word. I had people calling me a legalist and other such things for encouraging them to please read and know the Bible. That offended some! They removed the thread it got so bad, and it was open less than a day.

I have a favor to ask of you guys.
Don't stop coming against OSAS.
Yesterday, I read 1 Timothy and got convicted of trying to have authority over men with teaching. I think me addressing women is fine (Titus 2).
I can help women, but the main preachers of OSAS and hyper-grace are men.
I ask because I used to listen to men like this and was in a constant state of confusion, producing failure in my walk with God.
If not to change the osas camp, to help those looking on and observing who are unsure who's right and who's wrong.
Think of me as the little sister on the sidelines cheering you guys on, praying for ya'll and standing with you in Spirit.
