The Christianity Described in Matthew

 Matthew 7 stands against a censorious Christianity. "Judge not that ye be not judged"

Mattew 13 stands against a coercive Christianity. "Let both wheat and tares grow together until the harvest."
Matthew 18 standS FOR a conscientious Christianity. "If your brother sins against you. . ." ensuring that the church of Matthew 7's and 13's accomodation does not wink at sin.
Matthew 7 & 13 keep the church from being puritanical, while Matthew 18 keeps the church from being epicurean.
-- Reggie Kidd quoting Emil Brunner.
