He said he thought well of the church of which he is a member, but he never attends. He said a man should be honest with God in money matters, but he never tithes. He said the younger generation nees the Lord, but he isn't leading them in that direction. He said the church needs dedicated Christian members, but he isn't dedicated. He said the church should do more ministering to people, but he doesn't help. He is critical of the way the church is run, but he never participates. He says the Lord is surely coming soon, but he lives as though the Lord will never return. He is critical of some of the church workers, but he never offers to work. He says that prayer changes things, but he never prays. He was a strange man indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am reminded of this scripture. Mat 7:3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
