To: Mark17
Meanwhile, physician, heal thy self, pluck out your own eye, before you worry about someone else’s.

So when it is inconvenient, one interprets the scripture differently. I suppose that is human nature.

“Call no man father” is taken literally but sexual sin is taken figuratively. When one believes he or she is already saved, no matter what sins they commit, it is a snare.

Conduct really does matter; what one does.
praxis: a deed, function
Original Word: πρᾶξις, εως, ἡ

For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.
— Matthew 16:26-27

Get real bro. There really isn’t any reason to discuss ANYTHING with you. Have a nice eternity bro. 🔥 I hope you make it, but since you have a horrible fear of Hell, I just don’t know where you will be. It’s all your choice. Remember, the men of Nineveh. 😊

Who does that?

And what a joke coming from Roman Catholicism with its plethora or sexually sinning clergy.

And you guys have the chutzpah to point fingers at others?

Take the log out and clean your own house up before condemning others for what you allow for yourselves.

The only reason to not take *Call no man father* is to avoid obeying it and justify disobeying a clear, direct, explicit command of Jesus.
