one of my favorite verses about redemption.

"I say to you that tax collectors and harlots enter the kingdom of God before you. For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him; but tax collectors and harlots believed him; and when you saw it, you did not afterward relent and believe him." Matthew 21:31

one of the many great things about Jesus was that he wasn't full of self-righteousness.

'harder for a rich man to get to heaven'....

'you are lukewarm, neither hot nor cold'...

Amazing how almost everyone seems to disagree with ole Roland. Must be another ‘mainstream’ representative of CNN.

But he also wasn't a namby pamby and judged rather harshly at times.

'harder for a rich man to get to heaven'....

But nothing shall be impossible with God

'you are lukewarm, neither hot nor cold'...

What does lukewarm mean? Moderate? unwilling to take a stand for truth? Blown and tossed by every wind of doctrine?

I'm not sure where you're going with this, it seems kind of vague.
