Wouldn't the time you spend spreading the Word be better spent learning to count to ten before you react?
Does God give you credit for the number of people you convert, or the way you behave towards others?
If you do not love God enough to control your thoughtlessness, what example do you set for others?

Orion, What is this hang-up that you have with all this sinning business ?
You mentioned a number of times that Christians are thoughtless, but you don't say in what way they're thoughtless ?
Don't you think that it would be much more thoughtful on your part if you practiced your religion in your own way, and let the next guy practice his without criticism ?

Perfection and No mistakes is impossible and through christ we know that it is not the perfection of our bodies or our own mind but the gift of knowing that through christ we strive to do those things different but we never become perfect. we become righteous in jesus .Not self righteous but cleansed in christ to be forgiven for our sins.And I think through that heart change we set those examples. And god said there would be false things and deceipt but through FAITH AND TRUST in him we can do all things.

Sin is disobeying God.
Seems like the thoughtless one is you.

Actually, JW's are the ones who think that the number of people they witness to matters.
Other than that, I really do not know exactly what you are talking about.

You don't want a wise answer...
You only want to show your foolishness.

Probably, but that would be true for everyone, no?

Please don't "spread the word", we would all get along better.
