It is most assuredly not sarcasm, Christine (I'm
not above employing it but, not this time). I'd guess that the content of your
life lived before God is, in no ascertainable, quantifiable way different from
John Smithson's. (Same to your Dad)

Is this sarcasim? If you see JD walking in the kind of
love of which I speak, (which he may do, I'm new to this board) why do
you all chafe so much at the mention of walking in righteousness? It was when
I realized I was walking in it when I went back to scipture
and saw that this kind of life, this kind of love, is what
every child of God is destined to practice. If you do it and call it
by a different name, praise God. Knowing and giving the love of God is the
only way to live.
SNL has done some clever stuff, but I am not familiar with this
Conehead sketch of which you speak. What is the joke? :-)

of the 'Conehead' sketch on SNL.

That is a self-absorbed comment. I am not saying you are
self-absorbed, JD, but that comment is a self-absorbed mindset when
following Christ. If you love God, you will live righteously.
By the way, "this is love, that we walk after his commandments." (
2John 1:6)
I am not saying we should be obsessed with our personal
righteousness, but that we will be righteous and blameless when we love
God and walk in that love. I am trying very hard to understand why this is
troubling to you.

Uh, yes Lance, that is what I meant when I wrote:

That is how you walk in righteousness. My father and I
are not saying to live for righteousness's sake, but
for Christ's sake, and your life will be glorify God.
You disagree with this?
