Why I'm thankful for the ministry...

    That's funny. I felt the same way. I would doubt some teaching, pray for truth, then run into someone in the ministry who would pick out that point. I remember begging someone to argue a point with me, he kept declining, so I called him out on it (told him that I was expecting him to correct me should he feel he's right). He leveled me with certain scriptures and questions, I told him I enjoyed the conversation and I never went back. I'm really glad he consented to converse, however, because he helped me to see alternative interpretations of certain scriptures that proved momentous [of course, I never told him this because how could you tell someone in the ministry "well I think you're right, but I'm going to go on doing what I do because it'll cause me too many problems to do otherwise." ] Somehow, we can bury those doubts, but I remembered their arguments. And eventually put them all together.
