22. I have 5 words for you:
The Sermon on the Plain (Luke 6:17-49). Get it out there, and maybe people will realize how much their faith has been corrupted. Seeing as how it comes from the source, I forsee no problems with arguments.
Here's a list of what it contains. My favorite part of the Bible. (Speaking as a Non-Christian)
- The Beatitudes (6:20-26) !!!
- Love your enemies and turn the other cheek (6:27-36) !!!
- Treat others the way you want to be treated (6:31) !!!
- Don't judge and you won't be judged, don't condemn and you won't be condemned, forgive and you will be forgiven, give and you will receive (6:37-38) !!!
- Can the blind lead the blind? Disciples are not above their teacher (6:39-40a)
- Take the log from your own eye before attending to the sliver in your friend's (40b- 42)
- A good tree does not produce bad fruit and a bad tree cannot produce good fruit, each tree is known by its fruit (43-45)
- Why do you call me Lord, Lord yet not do what I command? (46) !!!
- Whoever follows my instruction builds on rock and will survive, whoever does not builds on sand and will be destroyed (47-49)

I've marked with 3 excalamation points the most important parts that people should understand.
