Giving, Giving in, or Giving up

 Hello everyone, unfortunately I have to do another worldly monk post. A friend of mine just quoted J.I. Packer as telling people to never compromise, and I truly believe that is one of the church teachings that has most hurt us. Compromise is one of the main forms of being "at peace" whenever possible, and it is a sign of not having a stubborn hard heart.  Often, when selfish people refuse to compromise, there are other people who suffer and have to lose everything.  Compromising also protects us when we are wrong and don't know it. That is all I will say about it.  Everyone is familiar with having the same government problems for thirty years. Now we see some of the spiritual roots of it.
