DEE acknowledges: Good rules don't guarantee the end of abuses

DEE said:   My point for now is this. It doesn’t matter if you attend the most doctrinally pure church with strict child protection policies, your kids are still at risk. Sadly, there is no policy or correct doctrine that can fully protect our children. That part is up to us. If you see something that bothers you, even the tiniest little bit, report it. The child you save may be your own.

Remember: Rules will not stop predators, merely slow them down.

If you are a Biblical realist, like Jeremiah, you knew that already.  

Jeremiah 17:9-10 New International Version (NIV)

9 The heart is deceitful above all things
    and beyond cure.
    Who can understand it?

10 “I the Lord search the heart
    and examine the mind,
to reward each person according to their conduct,
    according to what their deeds deserve.”

FYI

Dee promises to point out the mote in John Piper's eye in her next post.
