[quote:Me114:MV8xMDk3Nzk3XzE3NTIyMDc3XzcyMzBBRjRB] [quote:Once4All] another one from Dale: Who can be saved? Do you share the gospel message more often with those who seem fairly decent, not obviously involved in sin? Do you think that sinners are less likely prospects for salvation? Yet I didn’t come for the righteous, but to call sinners to repentance. If you find an unbeliever who seems righteous, they probably feel the same way about themselves. How can they be convicted of sin unto repentance? It is not for you to judge the quality of a prospect, but to obey my command to preach the gospel to every creature. This work can only be completed by the Holy Spirit, but you can be generous in doing your part. 2 very interesting points here... proclaiming the gospel to every CREATURE [many have shared the gospel with the animal kingdom or aliens???] And, second point, that Jesus came to call SINNERS and not the SELF RIGHTEOUS. So, that makes me think that some people hear the call of Jesus [sinners] and the others do not! [/quote] I teach my cats about the kingdom, they respond well to it too. [/quote]

You know that people are capable of evil, but they are also capable of incompetence. When someone is thoughtless of you, are you eager to attribute it to a deliberate slight, or do you think they may just be unaware? In many cases there are multiple explanations for a given behavior and you are not able to determine the true underlying motive from superficial observations. I can judge the thoughts and intents of the heart, but you cannot. In these cases it is better for you to assume the most benign intentions the facts will allow, rather than the harsher judgment of evil intent. In this way judge others as you would have them judge you.
