And They’ll Know We Are Christians….

...by our love.

What an oxymoron.

Oh yeah, they’ll show love, but only when their ideologies are in agreement or that the person who needs the love is willing to admit how horrible of a person they are.

Jesus didn’t put the tax collectors or the woman at the well through a series of “tests” in order to share his love with them.  Jesus didn’t attempt to humiliate to show how holy and righteous he was.  He took people for face value and loved them for it.

That is what’s missing from today’s Christian.
