I have noticed those who seem to show great deal of support in either the right or wrong are hypocritical because they soon disappear irresponsibly.
"Support" is not the same as "faithfulness".

Support is a term used by the gentiles and those who are to be cast into the fury of eternal hell, even before time.
When we come to serve, we serve God with the greatest gratitude because of the opportunity to see how God work. We are not the giver, God is the giver.
What we take is given, what we give is given.

Bible Study is not democratic discussion. Hermeneutics must be clear. Soli Deo Gloria. Not anthropocentric.[@more@]
The Jewish Pharisees are those whose bible is the old testament alone.
The Christian Pharisees are those whose bible is the new testament alone.

Christ is the head, the Church is the body. Yes.
Many christians who serve in churches like to see themselves as helping, supporting their churches. Being part of the body parts, doing different functions to support the church. WRONG. We all serve because God has granted us the mercy and grace of such opportunity. We do not HELP God. God DOES NOT NEED us. We NEED God. So please don't call yourself a christian if you are one of such and if not please get out, I deliver you unto Satan, so that you may learn not to blaspheme.
Also, for those who think that they are good at encouraging others, keeping peace, being nice, but not respecting the Bible, the Word of God, please don't fool yourself that you are humble. You are perverting the grace of our Lord with your pride, taking matters into your own hand in secrets, cowardly; calling yourself wise but not according to the word of God. Yes, there is perhaps certain shadow of wisdom in all that you do, but unfortunately, this type of sketched wisdom is merely the limit the world of fallen human beings can acheive. This fake wisdom does not belong to those who have the glory and mercy of our Lord and God in their heart, they have the Truth, true Wisdom working in them, towards perfection.
And for those who think they are protecting the church, protecting pastors, being nice to the leaders of the church, showing fake respect to the elders and preachers, showing up in church thinking that they are showing respect but interpreting the word of God as some kind of philosophical ideas and that each person is entitled to their own way of interpreting, I pray that their sons and daugthers and the sons of their sons and daugthers of their daugthers, generations after generations all to be preachers and pastors, called by God in full servitude to the Lord.

The problem is they have been surrounded by their unseen pride.
Not to mention their patients, but they themselves have also been living in their own world. The saddest part is that they don't even realize it.
Thus, until they repent, they are only good for one thing. Piling up food in their family.

Eventhough memorizing Bible verses and meditating on them can be very time consuming, it is good to use some short period of time just to memorize it rather than playing off my time with lame excuses.

"We women must stick together"...
This is a notion some still hold very proudly. Especially those who are not married or divorced. So when they use this with a married woman who "sympathizes" them yet does not speak against them, their ignorance and folly are shown when the time they need their feminism "power" the most.

Sometimes when you think people are not so predictable, but they are actually more predictable than one thinks. Then again, this might not be the case. I do realize however that by studying the Bible, one can learn more in this area and know how to respond to different aspects of personalities.[@more@]
