Re: Negative speaking
I've just had an epiphany of sorts on this subject. To replace God's standard of good and evil, with instead, a standard that teaches getting a 'sense' of 'life' or 'death', is actual direct rebellion and throwing off of God's objective standard. This standard, the 10 commandments for a clear example, was delivered directly by Him, to expose us all as sinners, as none of us can attain it WL replaced that with a standard that is subject to corruption with no recourse to truth as God determines, or to repentance.
To be purely subjective may give liberty to the Holy Spirit, but also does not protect against the drivers and self deception of the carnal nature. In fact the very thing RJ warns against in his book.
WL, as ohio rightly points out, then filled the void with his own ultimate an non-biblical based standard of good and evil:
For some examples
Christianity, evil, LC, good
Personal opinion - evil. WL's opinion, good
Individuality - evil. Conformity, good.
And on and on it goes. And it will create conflict between people because it is subjective to each person's whims and desires, which will inevitably clash! They are no solution, each person a law unto themselves and their own subjective experience. God have mercy.
