Writers on this forum and most Christians in conservative Bible believing churches often default more to the Elder brother self justified persona even if they would otherwise give an orthodox testimony. That is not to suggest I would recommend a liberal church that worships a different god, but that it might be a blind spot for some of us to consider.
PS: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.
I appreciate your witness and steadfast spirit....Godspeed to all who herald the gospel of grace!! For though we are still great sinners in spite of being called saints, we have a a Greater Savior if we put our trust in Christ alone!!!
Be careful Lady Bug and Stevenr, our dear forerunner Martin Luther had to go into hiding after standing by his convictions divulged in Scripture on salvation by faith alone, in Christ alone, by grace alone.
