Yes go ahead make fun of me but don't worry Lord Jesus is with me. But I won't insult you people back.
Topic of the next lesson reminds me that I won't insult you people back.
Next lesson:
Luke 6:27-35
Love for Enemies
27 "But to you who are willing to listen, I say, love your enemies! Do good to those who hate you.28 Bless those who curse you. Pray for those who hurt you.29 If someone slaps you on one cheek, offer the other cheek also. If someone demands your coat, offer your shirt also.30 Give to anyone who asks; and when things are taken away from you, don't try to get them back.31 Do to others as you would like them to do to you.
32 "If you love only those who love you, why should you get credit for that? Even sinners love those who love them!33 And if you do good only to those who do good to you, why should you get credit? Even sinners do that much!34 And if you lend money only to those who can repay you, why should you get credit? Even sinners will lend to other sinners for a full return.
35 "Love your enemies! Do good to them. Lend to them without expecting to be repaid. Then your reward from heaven will be very great, and you will truly be acting as children of the Most High, for he is kind to those who are unthankful and wicked.36 You must be compassionate, just as your Father is compassionate.

I'm unsure as to what you mean...where did Jesus say not to just quote the gospel?

Where did Jesus say to quote the gospel? (And by "gospel" I'm not sure what we're referring to.)
Anyway, to the OP, what are you doing? Drollefille is on track. You're halfway to proof-texting. All you need to do to complete the act is to present your own interpretation.
The Bible doesn't speak for itself to people who don't know the context.

Well, considering the gospel was, as yet, unwritten during Jesus' life (and for at least another 30-100 years after that, depending on the book) I believe that Jesus didn't say a word about quoting the gospel. Either way.
I'm certainly not saying that it is WRONG to quote a gospel, but only quoting it is not a lesson. And if anything it is Mark or Luke passing the lesson on.
I can pick up a Bible, but when I come to GC for my high quality religious education, I want my HIGH QUALITY!

Serious question -- are you saying that presenting one's interpretation is a good thing or a bad thing?

Bad thing when it's not grounded in the context. Sola Scriptura paved the way for madness, in my opinion.

Did y'all see Julia Stiles on Leno? She was saying that in one of the eastern European countries where they were supposed to film, some Christian group burned down the set, so they were forced to improvise.
Have mercy. It's pure foolishness.

I know. People like to say it is no big deal. But I personally think the whole concept of that day is just scary.

However, it is not quite as scary as the fact that these people in Hollywood keep remaking old movies. GET SOME NEW IDEAS OR I'LL GIVE YOU ALL THE END OF THE WORLD.

***golf clap***
Yet another reason why I welcome the end of the world because apparently we have ran out of movie ideas.
