Notice God invited the people, “BOTH GOOD AND BAD” to the wedding.

Sorry; but Jesus said there are NO 'good' people.

Their 'goodness' is as filthy rags to GOD.

I have no 'goodness', you have none and the rest of Humanity has none.

"Madam, what you say is true - you HAVE no husband. Go; and sin no more."


And if you insist on being literal...

Did I?

I 'literally' want you to name names of those 'in this thread' that you have judged as being so unkind to folks.

“I ‘literally’ want you to name names of those ‘in this thread’ that you have judged as being so unkind to folks.”

I think the people on this thread who are using poor technique to evangelize for Christ probably know who they are. They can read my opinions for themselves and decide what may apply to them. It’s not my style to browbeat people.

Christ invites the good and the bad to the wedding with open arms. We are each responsible to be the type of guest Christ asked us to be, and to behave appropriately. The only type of sinner Christ treated to harsh words was the hypocrite. It seems He really couldn’t abide them. Therefore, I think it is a wise course of action to watch ourselves very closely, examine our motivations and behaviours, and refrain from casting stones at others. Christ pulled others to Him with Truth and Love, not invective.

I agree with you that we are all flawed and, for that reason, none of us should hold ourselves up as the judge of anyone else. Only God can judge a soul.
