Well, I'm proud of you for coming up with something. That's what I was trying to get you to do. I still don't believe that to be a contradiction...you have to read it all in context. I admire your persistance, though. I only said what I said to get you to try harder. Sneaky, huh? LOL I'm sure you've had teachers do something similar, if you have good teachers. Anyways, I believe those verses are saying take care of one another, help each other, but don't brag about how much you do for them. It's saying that you shouldn't compare your works to someone else and feel like you're doing better than they are. When it says each one shall bear his own load, it means you alone will be judged for what you did or didn't do come judgement day. It's really important to read all the scripture together to derive meaning from it. The bible is a book to read as a whole. You'll notice that only cults take scripture out of context. Anyways...it was fun debating with you. Good luck and God bless (even if you don't believe in Him).
