Setting Aside Distracting Discussions, What Is Captivating You About Jesus?

2
Earlier i posted here a question about head coverings. After a comment that i doubt in anyway meant for me to rethink asking the question, let alone deleting it, i did have a rethink about it. I decided that at worst it was a distraction from thinking upon greater things and at best was a distraction from thinking upon greater things.


In no way do i belittle the importance of churches making decisions in regards to issues like this.

Oh dear...........

I could say a whole lot on this subject but it may be unfair of me - my experience of these discussions and of this thought/idea/belief has always been somewhat tinged with legalism.............

if I was in a blunt mood though I would walk away from that conversation as I generally feel it is a silly pointless debate....

but, yea, il shush now!

Brilliant response, i totally agree that 99% of the time its stupid, unhelpful and a distraction. Bbut sometimes, just sometimes its fun to debate and watch brothers frantically read up on it and listen sermons on it.

Who am i trying to kid - its a nonsense argument and i'm stopping it right now. Cheers for clearing thoughts!
