On Sunday Pastor Spencer taught us about understanding that the world we live in is filled with hate but we are not to be a part of it. Of course, there are good people out there. But without Jesus, we’re all lost.<\/p>\n\n\n

He shared how 1 John 3:15 talks about how if we hate someone, before God we are just as bad as a murderer. Many people in the world tend to stick with people who are like them, but reject those who are different. Hate can poison a person’s soul. Unforgiveness is usually the root cause of hate. We as believers must keep hate and bitterness from springing up and defiling the church of Jesus Christ. That’s you and I who believe in Jesus as our personal Savior, believe the Bible is the infallible Word of God, and seek God daily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As believers we are not to hate, but we are to love. The world without Jesus really doesn’t know how to truly love like God does. Love is an action not a feeling. Romans 13:9-10 says we are to love our neighbor as ourselves. Loving someone is a choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jesus people think different that the world. We are not a sub-culture but in fact we are a counter culture. God’s Kingdom is all about bringing people to light and knowledge. Psalm 119:105 says that God’s word is a lamp to our feet and a light unto our path. John 8:31,32 says that we will know the truth and it will set us free. If you don’t know the word of God, you can’t know true freedom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jesus people must be the counter culture as Jesus Christ is and bring the chaos and confusion of the world to God’s wonderful light. Hallelujah!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
