Fascinating...It seems trust in the friend preceded putting trust in the chair. What does that say about building relationships with our friends and neighbors who are uncertain about the trustworthiness of Jesus? Thank you for sharing!
To give context to the video, I was having a hard time trying to explain to the guys that knowing what is right is not enough. They were wondering if they should use church discipline against a fellow Christian who drinks rum and gets drunk. My response is what you see in the video. People have a hard time trusting Christ with the hard areas in their lives, but we can help them by walking along side them as they struggle with their faith. They did finally get it as the pastor who came over to me showed. I think this had been a struggle in his life at one time so he understood the need for grace and relationship.
