So, you will have no problem noting exemplary ones after all.

I certainly couldn’t fill Blessed Teresa’s shoes, nor could even approach the martyrs who we call saints.

I’d have to have either a narcissistic bent or a huge ego to claim I live according to their lives in Christ.

I do the best I can with the Grace I’m given but I’ve never considered tarring those who fulfill the Lord’s Words better because of unacknowledged jealousy or some disguised Pride.

I don’t compare their lives to mine. I try to live like Christ and fail more than I succeed.

However, the bible clearly teaches us not to be “respectors of men”. I don’t know what lurks in the hearts of other men but, being a man, I know the heart of men. I see all Christians as equal.
