"God doesn't love us because we arerighteous, but because He loves us Hemakes us righteous"- Martin Luther.
in one of my class (i can't recall)the lecturer was saying something like
"a divorced man cannot preach abouthow to mantain a happy marriage" andneither "an anti-social can preachabout community life"
they just do not have the credibilityto preach so.
How about me? i'm a sinner so i willtalk about sinners and how muchhypocrisy is damaging our society. ami credible enough to talk about this?
how about a man who never replied tomy 'hellos' every morning and the nextthing i know is that he is preachingabout "Christian politeness"??
how about a man driving around in hisMercedes Benz (sometimes he switchedto his BMW) is preaching about "livingin extreme humility" or "totallysimple life"...?
"Why do you look at the speck ofsawdust in your brother's eye and payno attention to the plank in your owneye?
How can you say to your brother, `Letme take the speck out of your eye,'when all the time there is a plank inyour own eye?
You hypocrite, first take the plankout of your own eye, and then you willsee clearly to remove the speck fromyour brother's eye." (matt 7:3-5)
