WOW! So you saying those 'in Christ' are deliberately misled?
Seems YOU are the one who has wake up first before you even touch the basics of Christianity.
Seems pride got the best of you and are quick to condemn!
Those deliberately misled are those who I don't cast pearls to!
"Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and then turn and tear you to pieces." Matt 7:6
Our fellow Christians are not “dogs” and “pigs”, but rather our brothers and sisters in Christ. Since you quote the sermon on the mount:
7 Judge not, that ye be not judged.
2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.
6 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.
I pray for both of us.
