…agendas and The Word

It bothers me when I see the fight against equality… Specifically equality in regards to the LGBTQ Community… For the most part, the fight against stems from this thought of protecting Christian values… Truth is that it is a fight stemming from an individual’s own views/issues with the homosexuality, transgender etc… If one was truly concerned with protecting Christian values then all of the following would be punishable with fines and/or jail time: adultery, gossiping, coveting, hating another human, taking God’s name in vain… I am a Christian… I am tired of seeing God’s word twisted and/or used to support one’s own agenda… There are two primary “jobs” we have as Christians: bring the beautiful news of Christ to the world and to love one another… Somewhere along the way, that message got lost and condemnation of others took hold as the job of a Christian… We judge and we do not share the beautiful words of God… We pick one verse out of thousands upon thousands to support an agenda when every single word is vital and connected to one another… God is deeper and more, well He is simply MORE than what is in black and white and written in one verse… His word is what should be protected (although He needs no protection, we need HIS protection) AND what should be shared…
