Can you tell me where doing our best is in the New Testament?


The Golden Rule.... 2 commandments...

Both are absolutes. Not ‘do your best.’

My point is that the idea of ‘doing your best’ ultimately leads to judging others. Jesus gave absolute commands, without the escape hatch of ‘do your best.’

Without the possibility of this absolute compliance, I am at the mercy of God’s Spirit and His mercy. I have no room to curse others.

This thread basically revolves around Hoggard cursing the Adventists and patlin cursing Hoggard.
