But that likely means something different for you, i guess...so be it. your heart will be revealed, and you will reap what you sow.

You really cannot talk bible, can you? You have to attack me in every moment you get. All I asked was YOUR opinion and how YOUR faith forms from this passage. But it's MIKE BLUME MIKE BLUME MIKE BLUME.

um, if it helps any, those are pretty much universal truisms, they apply to everyone. Don't judge, and you won't be judged, Mike. You are a pastor, so suck it up, buttercup.

perhaps a more useful answer here is that taking offense so easily is a dead giveaway.
