I've got a really short bolg today. The Bible says plainly "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16 (King James Version)
I believe there is a right and a wrong, sin and righteousness, Heaven and Hell. If that makes me intolerant or outdated or mean then so be it. Jesus is the WAY. The thing that gets me is why do alleged believer go around spouting hatred? God is love, or maybe they didn't read that part. Sin must be confronted but it's not because of hate it is because of love. If I love my kids I don't let them play in traffic and if they try to I confront them and stop them. the same with sin. If you have unrepented sin in your life and I love you I will confront that sin. Love doesn't allow sin to go unchecked. But it must be love, not anger or hatred. Jesus loves you, He died for you, He wants you in the kingdom. If you encounter the people who hate in the name of Jesus or God remember they do not speak for Him and they are wrong. Love took Jesus to the cross and love can bring him into your heart and give you everlasting life.
