Thanks Pat... please tell Chase "Hey" for me. And I understand the appeal of football and soccer now. You only get one little piece of time in life for those sports typically but triathlon can be done into old age. Yes, getcher backside up here and let's hang out! Likewise.

Terri, yes... this makes the point exactly and I really appreciate you making it. And here the point can even be more telling when others realize you're from Canada and the social network has no geographic boarders! I hope all is well with you in the great white north!

I think you make a couple great points and agree we have pulled the "plank card" far too often when it comes to accounting for behavior. BUT it is our job as believers to judge believers not outsiders (1 Cor. 5) but do so in light of our own behavior (Rom.2). That is why I believe it is easy to understand the balance between truth and grace... the truth is, we're all deserving of God's wrath but thankfully we receive His grace, when we confess our badselves to Him.
