This Was For You

If you believe Jesus died for your sins, it doesn’t give you the right to perpetuate those sins.

Jesus was asked, “What commandment is the foremost of all?”

Jesus answered, “The Lord our God is the one Lord; and you shall love the Lord our God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength. The second is this – You shall love your neighbor as yourself. There is no other commandment greater than these.”

If you don’t love your neighbor as if your neighbor is yourself, you are a sinner.

This goes for Blacks, Latinos, Muslims, Jews, Gays and even Liberals.

If you claim to be a Christian then being a Christian trumps any ideology.
