I'm preaching from Matthew 7:1-12 this Sunday and this article hits the nail on the head. I don't know what it is about humans that we keep trying to lift ourselves up on the backs of people we think are lower than us. This should never happen in the church - but it does - we constantly need to be reminded of the Golden Rule. It's sad that there are so many wounded believers - collateral damage to those who overestimate their own goodness. Good job, Brian. As Jesus says at the end of chapter 7 ... hear and do....otherwise when the storm comes, down comes your house.
Thank you, John! Some are self centered and would rather take the focus off of themselves to disguise their own guilt  I look forward to hearing your sermon tomorrow
