My wife and I recently left a church. We watched the elders slowly and occasionally introduce Jewish customs into the church, thinking there was some missing spiritual value in these traditions, good for their church. We disagreed. Since they never violated my previously mentioned standards, we left quietly, and felt no need to publish our views. For the most part, I would agree that we should not "bash" Christian leaders. Related to the basic truths of His work on the cross, we will never compromise. But regarding teachings like interpretations of prophecy, regulations for our daily living, or diverse practices by churches, ministers should present them as "a healthy way," rather than "the only way."
