I agree with most of what you've said. However, I wanted to point out to you - for the record - that the Bible does tell us to help each other along the path. In fact, if a person claiming to be a brother or sister in Christ continues to act in ways contrary to the Christian walk, we are to disassociate from that person.

I must disagree with the above statement about disassociating ourselves. We as Christians have Christ as an example to follow. Christ did not judge sinners but came to save them. Therefore he came to save everyone. Christ ate with Tax Collectors and in that time they were considered the most unholy of them all. Could it be that true Christian living calls for us not to help those who are already well in Christ but to help those in sin as we lift ourseleves as well?
