I have nothing AGAINST dressing neatly, good manners or kindness, but those are all mankind's requirements/requests for PROPERNESS (propriety/decency) and have no spiritual value in God's eyes, neither would those 'gestures' be adequate to show anyone the love I have in my heart and mind. The traditional teachings neglect the importance (de-emphasize) that a Christian should actually have/use a MIND/self and conscience.

All throughout history, satan has CONFUSED mankind (hence, satan's name as "god of confusion") so that thoughts are not understood properly (example: mankind has been convinced to INTERPRET instead of UNDERSTAND scripture).

Peaceful coexistence is the LOGICAL goal for mankind (meaning peace and harmony are logical). Evil/wrong disrupt/prevent peace and harmony (therefore, EVIL IS ILLOGICAL). This is why it is satan's goal to "confuse" logical thought. Evil simply CANNOT be committed (they might make an accidental MISTAKE, but will not INTENTIONALLY "commit" evil) by a peaceful, calm, and objectively logical/reasonable person. Godly "LOVE" does not mean that you should be 'convenient' for people, or that you should be a 'doormat', it does not mean that you should perform 'acts of kindness' like a Boy Scout, it means that you should respect your fellow human being's HUMANITY (respect their human rights),...simple as that.

My love for my fellow human being is already shown in my demeanor. If you meet your friend on the weekend and spend the afternoon hanging out together, there is nothing EXTRA that you need to do in order to SHOW/prove that you love them spiritually, you have shown your spiritual love for them all afternoon (if they need extra HELP with something, it's your personal decision whether you can be there for them).

If I hung out with you and we played chess, basketball, etc. and had good conversations together, there would be nothing extra (no extraordinary effort) necessary to show you that I liked or spiritually loved you as my brother/fellow human being. There is a TECHNICAL difference between 'fellow human being brother' and a BRETHREN in Christ, BUT we are to show NO partiality (be impartial, make no distinction between the two, within reason, at your discretion).

It would be unrealistic claim that God's WRITTEN word has not been tampered with by bible translators (choosing their own words to translate), but God's TRUE message to us can still be found by those with spiritual eyes (LOVE in their heart and mind).

Don't search the scriptures with a dictionary or a commentary, but search with the spirit in your heart AND mind (1 Corinthians 2:10).
