No grudges; just forgiveness.

August 12, 2012

Proverbs 12:3    “A man shall not be established by wickedness: the soul of the righteous shall not be moved.’

            I am not a supporter of social religion; I am not a humanist. Man has created a new religion of self-pride and pushes it on Christians as the only true way Christ would want things done.

            This verse however makes me stand up for integration. I truly believe that God loves us all equally—regardless of race, gender, religion, or character. His son died for ALL to have availability to Him.

            Misunderstanding, over the years, has caused many groups to segregate themselves from ones who look, act, dress, or worship differently. Of times the segregated groups truly believe in the same triune God, but with miniscule differences.

            I applaud the way that most Christians have banded together that worship Jesus. I applaud the fact that true Christians stand up for their faith and will not be moved. Character remains the true choice.

Lord, we love you today and take responsibility for the years of oppression and repression. As long as we confess this, Lord, You are faithful to forgive and we can move on. Help us, Lord, not to hold grudges and be unforgiving. Help us, Lord, to freely share the life altering “Good News” You have given us. For Your service, we live.   Amen.
