I even said on the program at the end, "I have no idea how I will describe this program today." Â Basically it was about finding balance, thinking through what is definitional and what is adiaphora (matters upon which different views can be held), first order doctrines versus second and third order doctrines, etc. Â I discussed the idea of separationism that comes from fundamentalism, etc. Â Like I said, hard to describe. Â But at the end we looked at a comment from Rick Patrick illustrating the flow of thought in "Traditionalism," and how it is from man to God, not the other way around.

Great Sermon! Even when Paul is defending his ministry against the false apostles in 2 Corinthians 10:1, he appeals to the meekness and gentleness of Christ. Matthew Henry's commentary on this verse is excellent and very applicable here:
"The mild and humble manner in which the blessed apostle addresses the Corinthians, and how desirous he is that no occasion may be given him to use severity... He addresses them in a very mild and humble manner... yet in the midst of the greatest provocations he shows humility and mildness, from the consideration of the meekness and gentleness of Christ, and desires this great example may have the same influence on the Corinthians. Note, When we find ourselves tempted or inclined to be rough and severe towards any body, we should think of the meekness and gentleness of Christ, that appeared in him in the days of his flesh, in the design of his undertaking, and in all the acts of his grace towards poor souls." -- Matthew Henry on 2 Corinthians 10:1
