While there are those that run around trying to figure out who is following the rubrics, there are those that look for opportunities to grow in Love. Growing in Love requires a humble approach, and the approach starts with a simple word, "Yes", and "Yes" leads us to a closer relationship with, Jesus.
You see, we are much quicker to send a soul to hell based on our understanding of what we think Jesus wants from us than Jesus is. Here are the words that are penned
"Amen, I say to you, all sins and all blasphemies
that people utter will be forgiven them.
But whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit
will never have forgiveness,
but is guilty of an everlasting sin."
that people utter will be forgiven them.
But whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit
will never have forgiveness,
but is guilty of an everlasting sin."
I guess it's hard for some people to grasp the idea that the person we think is going to hell based on our perceptions may be in paradise.
Love never changes and while some argue the tough love stance, remember this 'Judge not less ye be judged." it is much harder to show Love and Mercy than it is to damn a soul. Take the road Jesus showed us.
In Him,
