GraceHead vs. LawHead 10 (cruel conformity or "instant maturity")

You are accepted, you are "in," you are instantaneously approved as soon as you go along with the list of beliefs and doctrine of LawHead teaching. They will quickly take you through LawHead discipleship by simply imparting all the points and proofs of their doctrine, and once you quit questioning them and start enforcing their dogma on others, then you have completed all the discipleship that they have to offer. The fullness of maturity in LawHead teaching always centers around theology, and you are condemned and judged if your compliance is not 100 percent like what they believe.

GraceHead discipleship emphasizes compassion. We allow you to fail over and over and over again. We allow you to be confused, wrong, and fail ... because we know there are things to be learned in failure that cannot be learned through victory. Rather then try to imbue a bulletproof dogma on youngsters in the kingdom; we want them to develop a soft heart and a sincere/openness about their weaknesses. Being in tune with your weakness is the key to tapping into God's strength.

One of the best ways to discourage a 3 year old is to manipulate and condemn them for not working the farm and driving a tractor like their teenage brother. And, we know what harm can come from being afraid to learn to stand until you think you are ready to run. First things must come first, and maturity takes time with many stages along the way - each just as important as the next.

We go as we grow, and we grow as we go. There is no way to instantly mature by repeating someone else's creed.
