Peace Be Upon All Here—
Hi, everyone. I have posted this on the Christian board because, as a Christian, the reputation of Christ is very important to me. That does not mean that I would not welcome sincere and peaceful comments from anyone of any faith.
For those of you who profess that Jesus is Christ, your Lord and Savior, the Lamb of God and King of Kings, this one’s for you:
If we are doers of the Word, and not merely hearers, then how shall we represent Him? Do we sometimes fly His flag but neglect to salute it with our lives? What about the tongue? What does the tongue say about our hearts?
As Christians, do you think that we are more apt to go forcefully try to dig the speck out of the eye of someone of another faith, when sometimes one of “our own” cannot see because there is the trunk of a redwood clouding his vision?
When I say "one of our own", I also mean each one of us personally.
And finally, if we are indeed believers in the Kingdom of Heaven, if we believe that God is Love, how should we conduct our lives? Is it dangerous for us to attempt to understand the hearts of non-believers?
I could go on and on, but this is probably enough to start a conversation. One in which I am sincerely invested.
InPeace,
InLove
