I'm saying I do not know what ML's reasons for his teaching method are but he has said if we had walked in his shoes we would understand better. All I know is he is showing many signs of working in the fruit of the Spirit.
Since I have not walked in his shoes completely, I do not know anymore than that. Since I trust his heart is in the right place I will have to trust that is he doing the best he can do. Now if we were not seeing any fruit of the Spirit in him, I would be worried. We all sometimes miss the mark in love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control. These we should strive for.
