Burnishing Bigotry - 3rd edition

Daniel #077: Thereafter you go on to quote Romans 5:8, stating, ―God demonstrates His
love for us, that while we were stlll sinners, Jesus died for the remission of our sins.‖
Actually Dan, aside from the fact that this is a Paulinist concept and not a Christ-based
one [refer to pages 582-584], it still means that you need to humble yourself and clean your own
cup instead of doing God‘s work by trying to clean anyone else‘s … I mean, if Christ‘s sacrifice
on the cross is so important to you (and understandably so), then why in the world do
you continue to reject the teachings he offered before his crucifixion?
So once again I offer you the following VERY IMPORTANT verses – especially
important for anyone publicly claiming to believe ―the whole Bible‖ &/or worship Jesus Christ
as their only Lord & Savior. May you one day come to heed them well!
―Do not judge, so that you may not be judged … Why do you see the speck in your
neighbor‘s eye, but do not notice the log in your own? ... You hypocrite! First take the log out of
your own eye, and then you will see clearly enough to remove the speck from your neighbor‘s ...
You hypocrites! For you clean the outside of the cup [of others], but inside are full of greed and
self-indulgence ... First clean the inside of your own cup, so that the outside may also then
become truly clean … Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you
will never enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Whoever becomes humble like this young child is the
greatest in the Kingdom… Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.‖
~ Jesus Christ (Matthew 7:1-2 + Matthew 23:25-26 + Matthew18:3-4 + John 8:7)
