Martin Luther, in the 95 theses, was led by God to begin with:

1. Our Lord and Master Jesus Christ, when He said Poenitentiam agite, willed that the whole life of believers should be repentance.  2. This word cannot be understood to mean sacramental penance, i.e., confession and satisfaction, which is administered by the priests.  3. Yet it means not inward repentance only; nay, there is no inward repentance which does not outwardly work divers mortifications of the flesh.

Working from there and with genuine desire to please God in all of this life that He has given me to steward, I write this note.

I was out street witnessing and saw a woman screaming, with more hate and anger than you could honestly believe, truth from Gods word and I was compelled to confront her in love about what she was doing. She wrote me off and then screamed louder this beautiful message in the absolutely worst way. So I turned to the crowd and shared the gospel with them (God be glorified that He uses all things for His glory and our good) afterward she was not really wiling to speak to me, but her husband with all the hate and spite he could muster screamed at me and spit on me and called me a watered down bringer of a false gospel. 

All that to say, what bothered me the most about them was not their message but that they gave it without any concern or love for the people who they spoke to. They spoke of judgment without displaying love.

It has come to my attention through various means that I have hurt some of you in a very similar way. I believe God speaks today through the scriptures to us, so for the truth I don't repent, but for my harsh tone, my laziness, my lack of love, and my hardness of heart I both repent(have the heart to never do it again) and ask for your forgiveness and future honesty to call me out when I am not acting in line with the Scriptures.

In His grace, love, and peace brothers and sisters
-Andrew
