Paul said we are saved by God's grace through faith alone. James said faith without works is dead. Jesus said, "If you love me feed my sheep." "If you would be saved sell your goods and give them to the poor and follow me."

This kind of self-righteous pharisaic sanctimony makes me puke. The Christian Gospel is about the redeeming love and mercy of God. This rubbish has nothing of love in it, it is merely clanging cymbals and sounding brass.

Yup. 1 Corinthians 13 came to mind while I was reading your post.
