Two people stand side by side. Both believe in God.
One goes to church every Sunday, reads his Bible every day, and tells everyone he knows about God. He drives a big SUV, lives in a big house, and tithes every Sunday.
One goes to church every once in awhile, if he's not hungover. He reads his Bible when he remembers, but instead of preaching to other people he just accepts them how they are. He doesn't tithe really, but he gives his time to work at soup kitchens and homeless shelters. He does his best to buy products that weren't tested on animals or made in sweatshops, and supports local businesses and charities.
Who, by your standards, is the "better" person? Which life is more desirable? The one where all the rules are followed, or the one who isn't living by legalistic standards yet lives a more humble and giving life?
