Purity: Where do you get off saying Jesus had sinful flesh? That isn't what Rom 8:3 is saying at all.

Now I know it. Your a poet! If we could have foreseen, You could avoid my bad poetry. But don't give me the third-degree, Because this one is free.

The answers people are giving in the poll are thoughtful and everyone is elaborating. I couldn't ask for better.

To try and make people respond more personally and less rhetorically.

I was hoping to get some discussion that would help me decide. But I can always change my vote later. Being called evil by some people... I would take it to mean that your doing something right.

A wise man once showed me that every motivation of ours is selfish. Even if we ministered to thousands and have given everything to the poor, we have done this for selfish reasons. We have all the promises of God to entice us to do his will. Suppose God gave no promises, no reward in heaven...
