Jesus said: "'Beware of the scribes, who like to walk around in long robes, and to be greeted with respect in the market place, and to have the best seats in the synagogues and places of honor at banquets! They devour widows' houses and for the sake of appearances say long prayers. They will receive the greater condemnation.'" Mark 12:38-40 (NRSV)
And I say beware of the Evangelicals who make a big show of their faith in public and like to raise their hands and speak in tongues for the sake of appearances.
Jesus said: "'Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and prostitutes are going into the kingdom of God ahead of you.'" Matthew 21:31 (NRSV)
And I say the gays and porn stars are going into the Kingdom of God ahead of you.
