All of the contributions were very thought provoking! Treating people with hatred not only makes them angry with you but it makes them hate your cause.

If our cause as christians is to bring people to God then we need to be aware of how we are representing our beliefs and our King.

I liked how you said last night “let’s show them the way into the kingdom with love”

It is the ONLY way!

I hope everyone is just as involved in the next few weeks! All of the contributions were very thought provoking!

For several reasons...I am angry how what Christians do in the name of God. I am angry that Christians preach condemnation rather than love. I am angry that our actions provide society with "ammo". But, I am also angry that people who are living in a state that is contrary to the word of God, use other people's behavior to justify their own. I think the most important element is to preach acceptance of people (doesn' Isiah say that we are ashes, but can be made into something beautiful?), but not acceptance of a compromised lifestyle. I think this is a hard concept for most Christians to grasp. This makes my blood boil. For several reasons…I am angry how what Christians do in the name of God.
