That verse 9 was a harsh one. I was thinking you definitely don't want to tell that one to someone you're trying to help become a believer. I guess it means more like if someone blatantly refuses to listen to him. I don't know....or maybe it just means why should he answer you if you aren't going to listen to him anyways?

I sure liked the one above!! Kinda sounds like our country right now. I wish we had a President with real understanding!
13 You can't whitewash your sins and get by with it; you find mercy by admitting and leaving them.
