We Love Others to Reveal Christ's Love, Not Our Ability to Love.

Col 3:11 Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.

Anyone can accept Christ as their Savior, no exceptions to that at all. ANYONE, it doesn't matter whether or not a person appears a certain way. There is no single appearance that labels one a Christian.

Sometimes we see people and by their behaviors, their words and such we can't imagine them belong to Christ.

Even the worst of the worst can belong to Christ and their walk with Christ can be a work in progress that we are witnessing. The guidance through each fire a person faces to refine them isn't ours to question. We are to LOVE, this is our only action.

It isn't easy loving those who are outwardly the worst of the worst in humanity. Loving those who are hateful to us, those who abuse us, those who hurt those we love, who torture the innocent, this is OUR commandment.

We love others to reveal Christ's love, NOT our ability to love.

Our loving doesn't mean was condone what others do. Our loving doesn't mean we are encouraging the evil behaviors of anyone! Our loving doesn't mean we enjoy what pain is towards us or pain that is inflicted upon others.  Our loving with Christ's love is HIS loving, HIS forgiving, HIS dying to SAVE all who would be saved!
