I've been annoyed lately, frustrated, and quite angry.
Finding that everyone around me who considers themselves a Christian, decides to hate their brothers and sisters instead of loving, supporting, and bringing them to Christ. Most, if not all of this is towards the Gay community.
In no way do I support their choices, but nor do I HATE them. They were created by God, saved by Jesus' Blood, and as Christians we are to love them, and bring them TO HIM. Not hate them, scare them away because we find their choices to be "disturbing". Forget about what YOU feel towards them for a second.. where in the bible does God say that He hates the person for sinning, He hates SIN.. but where does He say that He hates the sinner?
Then why do we think that we have that right to hate our brothers and sisters? We all were created by God, right? We all came from Adam and Eve, right? I don't understand it.. and you may call me a Hippy, nature lover.. Don't get me wrong, I am a Christian, but I do not support hatred. I do not support the calling out, screaming, and anti-gay rally's that have been going on. And the fact that we cannot seem to look at them as people created by our Creator, but... it seems like most people treat them like dirt.
I haven't heard people complain about thieves, liars, murders.. as much as I do about the gays. Where are the anti-sin protests? The anti-murder, anti-lying, anti-stealing groups? Do they sound too absurd? Why? They themselves ARE SIN.
Being gay is not the only thing in the bible in which God says that it's a sin. There are other things we need to worry about. And we will NOT bring anyone TO HIM by hating them.. Just my rant for the day.. lol
