will lower the boom on Patrick. His sentiment is what is wrong with many (most?) in the Evangelical community today. His twisted scripture means that if we love God we don't have to then do anything for our fellow humans. Just the opposite is true according to the ENTIRE New Testament and much of the Old.
Read 1 John to find a response to this anti-Christian hypocrisy.
Here is a passage from 1 John:
7 Brothers, I write no new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you heard from the beginning. 8 Again, I write a new commandment to you, which is true in him and in you; because the darkness is passing away, and the true light already shines. 9 He who says he is in the light and hates his brother, is in the darkness even until now. 10 He who loves his brother remains in the light, and there is no occasion for stumbling in him. 11 But he who hates his brother is in the darkness, and walks in the darkness, and doesn't know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.
1 John 2
-11
We are also told to love our enemies and when we have opportunity to do good to all people. We are never told to do evil to anyone.
Patrick is not the anti-christ but he is an anti-Christ.
