Dear Editor,
Please can I urge evangelicals to refrain from ‘naming and shaming’ other evangelicals when they say something they don’t agree with.
I’m not referring to outright heresy. However, recently a well-known and respected evangelical Bible teacher – whom I won’t name – whose ministry has been a blessing to thousands, has been ‘outed’ on social media, together with his photograph, because of a one-off word of advice he gave to someone. There have been calls for him to repent, and he has even been banned from some media platforms.
