New is not always good

I love the independent spirit
Any time a person fits a certain label, he or she loses their "mystique".  They become very predictable and there is nothing original or fresh about them.

Of course a person does not want to be completely whimsical, but everyone loves to be around those who are a little spontaneous and creative.  Nor is doctrine to be redefined with each free spirit.  But doctrine should be presented in new fresh ways, especially as God works in individual hearts.

Label Free
Being without a label means you cannot be put in a corral with the herd.  The wise man said that the majority is always wrong, anyway.

There are certain labels which should be attached.  "Christian" is one.  But even then, I don't like being labeled a certain kind of Christian, unless the category label is "Good".

I do like to be with crowds to interact.  Not necessarily to join them.  Again, stay fresh.

I do not like being labeled as an Independent.  This automatically files me in a folder with many who have abused the word or have no idea what it means.

I do fellowship with many who call themselves Independent and am very glad to be associated with them.  It is when we begin to label ourselves with adjectives in front of Christian that makes me nervous.

New is not always good
There are those who want something new in everything.  Could be a Big mistake.  I prefer to be slow to change, but I like to express the established point of view with new methods, expressions, analogies, etc.  Isn't this being Independent?
