I think many Christians don't really study the bible, They just believe what they are told.

Nice deflection. You're not a Bible authority; you pretend to be but you're clueless. You have no business teaching the Bible. You're a bitter man who thinks he's the smartest guy in the room. Unfortunately for you, you're the only one who thinks it.

You need to be attacked. You're here day in and day out trying to convince people you know what you're talking about when the only thing you want to talk about is sex. You're an authority on marriage who has never been married. You're an arrogant know-it-all who seems to think you know what every single Christian should be doing with their life. Guess what pal, get your own house in order then get back to us.

So you don't encourage others to help the poor and needy? You took Jesus words out of context. Jesus was talking about people boasting about doing good works to get the attention for themselves. I was not drawing attention to myself, I was encouraging others to help those in need.

You honestly can't see the difference between encouraging the Brethren, and boasting in YOUR good works?

And you were DEFINITELY NOT encouraging others. You were judging and attempting to shame them.

Reread your OP.

I quote scripture, just because I mention things I do, does not mean I'm boasting. We are to be examples. Going by what some say, you shouldn't even tell people you're a Christian. That could be seen as boasting, according to your view.
