I would also like to add, that quite often G-d deals with us individually. What He tells one person to do, He may not mean it for another.

Example: He maybe telling this Pastor not to drive an SUV. But, He never told me that. We live in the U.P. where we recieve over 200" of snow a year on average. Now, would Jesus want me to endanger my family and drive a small car, over a 4 wheel drive? I don't think so, plus He's never mentioned it to me. Now, if I lived in an area where there was no reason to have one, that MIGHT be a different story. Except, I should NOT impose on anyone else what G-d is dealing with ME about. This is not the 10 commandments. Nor love thy neighbor as thyself. This is personal, only to apply to me. When I stand before G-d on judgement day, He's not going to be asking me what someone else did. He's going to be asking me what I did.
