Competition means pleasing your customers. It means cooperation. You left out that the chief seat belongs to the chief giver, since no one gets something for nothing. In church culture 'putting others first' means abdicating self interest,(another rule rigging ploy) which is self murder.<br /><br />In the churches, expressions such as 'social relationships,' 'striving to improve the community,' 'cooperation,' are loaded code words for the losers plundering the winners. It is socialism/communism with a moral/religious veneer.<br />It is what the bible calls the parable of the unjust steward.<br />Why not move to North Korea and join your pals there, comrade.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-49260188778878355942017-04-27T11:41:57.608-07:002017-04-27T11:41:57.608-07:00Weston doesn't agree that the mere "membe...Weston doesn't agree that the mere "members" are necessarily his brothers to whom those warnings apply.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-37906970967861733302017-04-27T11:13:57.820-07:002017-04-27T11:13:57.820-07:0010:19 anon said

I don't think God is against working hard and out producing others. The parable of the giving of "talents" and what was produced shows God wants motivated workers.<br /><br />However on the level of being a part of the Church, developing social relationships, striving to improve the community we live in, cooperation is more Christ like. The Apostles were debating among themselves as who was to be a "top dog" in Christ's Kingdom. Jesus answer was to be the best servant, put others first as a Godly way to be a leader. <br /><br />I have a friend at church who likes to debate things. I have mellowed in my old age to say, "how about we just exchange our incites and opinions". I know longer feel the need to prove I'm smarter than the next guy. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-52531993254836195002017-04-27T10:19:21.975-07:002017-04-27T10:19:21.975-07:00I noticed how Doug condemns 'competition' ...I noticed how Doug condemns 'competition' and 'argue with... our brother and sisters in the faith.' In fact neither are wrong. Arguing if done in a non destructive manner, purifies relationships. It is a present in all healthy relationships. As humans, we compete for friends, mates, jobs. Competition is normal healthy behaviour. Competition is why for instance, smartphones are getting cheaper and better. <br />The reason why competition and arguing is condemned is rule rigging. It's the thieves talking to their victims, saying 'don't compete with me so that I can win,' and 'don't stand up for yourself by arguing.' Notice how the ministers do the opposite by lusting after the chief seats and 'arguing' by verbally bashing members. One standard for me, another for thee.<br /><br />It because of such exploitative rule rigging, that God does not bless these churches.
