A recent iMonk post has me wondering if my engaging in conversation at this blog makes me more like Jesus.

The answer is probably "No."

On the other hand, I don't think it's making me his enemy either, so I'll probably keep at it as long as it interests me. It does make me want to know him more. But that's not the same as being like him or even loving him.

Regardless, I can't help noticing that I've not yet escaped the mindset where being "right" (or, more often in the case of Fundamentalism, being "cooperative with the agenda") is more important than being like Jesus.

1. For the non-programmers, '!=' means 'does not equal.'

2. Yes, I post way too much Michael Spencer. I guess I just haven't gotten over the shock yet of a Baptist who isn't totally insane.
