Puritan Board Post-Graduate
As I was reading through some posts...mostly more recent ones, I was struck by the need of a dose of humility that many of us need. I know this is a discussion forum and that is what people are here to do, present their respective cases.
But sometimes it appears that posts are merely reactionary, and have not even considered what others have said to them. Especially when it is older, wiser counsel.
I am reminded of Elihu in Job 32 (just heard Dr. Pipa give an excellent sermon on it). He sat and waited to hear what the elders had to say, and then when they said nothing substantial or beneficial he chimed in.
Just a thought...a request for a modicum of humility by all.
(Maybe I should have made this a blog...but public forum seemed better suited.)
Blessings.
