I'm sure Jesus told his followers basically to "mind their own business" when he said: "Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?" Now I have never heard evangelicals or Born Again folks quote that from their bible. Its right up there with "Judge not, lest ye be judged". They must have a different version of the bible?
