DEB STEPS BACK - UPDATE: Where's the vaunted "open and transparent"

APPARENTLY, it's been coming for awhile.  One is always curious - Dee says it's not a health issue
 [ which almost guarantees it's a family issue ]. 

I've always perceived Dee to be the driving force; the Don Quixote of discernment blogs.  Deb seemed to be more along for the ride.

10 years of negative posts will do something to your psyche - and possibly your family and church.
_______

UPDATE;  TWW has always called upon churches/leaders to be OPEN AND TRANSPARENT.

Of course you'll not find it in the case of Deb stepping/down.

Ain't no openness nor transparency in the future.  TWW, like everybody else in the world, would like to keep some things to themselves.

DO NOT expect an open discussion of Deb and her situation.  They would like you to respect her privacy despite spending the last 10 years insisting that others did not deserve privacy.

Discernment blogs; only discerning others, never themselves.

Women pastors


https://www.christianpost.com/news/number-of-clergywomen-has-exponentially-increased-over-last-2-decades-study-says-227874/

The growth of women in the pastorate seems to have settled.

What you can't find is women planting/building churches.

Wartburgwatch and other discernment blogs

HEIDELBERG CONFESSION

Q. What is the aim of the ninth commandment?
A. That I
never give false testimony against anyone,
twist no one’s words,
not gossip or slander,
nor join in condemning anyone
rashly or without a hearing.1
Rather, in court and everywhere else,
I should avoid lying and deceit of every kind;
these are the very devices the devil uses,
and they would call down on me God’s intense wrath.2

666 the Mark of the Beast

In the Book of Revelation, there is found the famous number - 666; and it is said without this number on your person, you will be restricted from economic activity.  To receive this number you must bow to the beast.

Growing up, I believed it but we could never really see how this might play out.  Now we know.

It is easy to see that in the future all commerce might be dependent upon a chip imbedded underneath your skin.  Without this chip, you could neither buy goods or services.

Yep, it's all coming into focus

Wartburgwatch despises Challies

Of course they despise Tim.

____

Challies doesn't reference them directly or even indirectly - but it fits their M.O.

WARTBURGWATCH commenters simply hate the church

"Considering the nonsense going on in the American church on various fronts, it’s clear that there is a dearth of logic and discernment. I’ve never seen such gullibility among God’s people – they have become so open-minded that their spiritual brains have fallen out."
___________
I'm no great historian, but if you paid any attention what-so-ever, you would know that the New Testament Church in Corinth was an absolute disaster.  There's nothing new

The fallibility of humanity is not new and yet the illiberal commenters at T.W.W. appear to believe only this generation of conservative Evangelical churches are more corrupt than have ever been.

Great job Deebs; you convince more and more people to hate their church.

Discernment indeed - sarc
