i never once said (or implied) that a christian is not to live the lifestyle that Jesus taught us to live (no christian in the world would say that), what i SAID was, dont use that LIFESTYLE as your means of EVANGELISM. So it makes no sense to say \'im denying what Jesus taught because Jesus lived a life of love for others\'. i never denied that we are supposed to live rightouess, holy lives! I never said its wrong to love others, i said its wrong to love others as a means of evangelism at the expense of telling that person the gospel! Has anyone here practiced what i call \"stranger evangelism\" (as oppposed to friendship evangelism). If so, id love to know and hear about how when you tell the gospel to a complete stranger, that they become magically aware of your rightouess lifestyle?
