Let it ever be remembered that genuine faith in Christ will ever be productive of good works; for this faith worketh by love, as the apostle says, and love to God always produces obedience to his holy laws.
The only interaction I had with my brothers is like negative attention where I'd basically egg them on into beating me up - which was delightful!
