Lucy #475: Next you state that, ―It does not bother me when you say I'm judging others<br />

because I know what the Word says and how we are to judge.‖<br />

Oh really? You know what the Word of God says and you know how to judge others,<br />

Lucy? Do you really? … Well then, aside from mentioning the flagrant arrogance that making<br />

such a claim per se announces, I assume you won‘t mind doing for us what you have yet to do a<br />

single time over the last two and a half months herein – that being: explain how you can openly<br />

criticize the sins of homosexuals (much less incorrectly call homosexuality itself a sin) while<br />

simultaneously upholding the following sayings of Jesus Christ …<br />

Take your time: I‘ll be waiting …<br />

―Do not judge, so that you may not be judged … Why do you see the speck in your<br />

neighbor‘s eye, but do not notice the log in your own? ... You hypocrite! First take the log out of<br />

your own eye, and then you will see clearly enough to remove the speck from your neighbor‘s ...<br />

Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the<br />

Kingdom of Heaven. Whoever becomes humble like this young child is the greatest in the<br />

Kingdom of Heaven.‖ ~ Jesus Christ (Matthew 7:1-2 + 18:3-4)<br />

―All who exalt themselves will be humbled, but all who humble themselves will be<br />

exalted‖ ~ Jesus Christ (Luke 18:14)<br />

―Let [she] who is without sin cast the first stone.‖ ~ Jesus Christ (John 8:7)<br />

"You hypocrites! For you clean the outside of the cup [of others], but inside are full of<br />

greed and self-indulgence ... First clean the inside of your own cup, so that the outside might<br />

also become truly clean.‖ ~ Jesus Christ (Matthew 23:25-26)<br />
