If God made man in his image, why do so many hateful, bigoted, non-loving people attempt to create God in THEIR image?
MY God loves me and you…regardless of how I feel about you.
My God tells me that all men and women are created equal.
My God tells me that love and respect are the foundation of all human existence, and inseparable from the human condition.
My God tells me that to hate anyone is to deny him.
My God tells me that to judge anyone is to deny him.
My God tells me that if I treat other people the way I want other people to treat me I will know His love.
My God would never accept prejudice.
My God would never condone bigotry and hatred in His name.
My God IS Love.
…now, how did I get all of that out of the Bible? Well, first, I read it. Why do so many people assume they know God and what God would want, do or say and they have almost no real knowledge of what is actually in the Bible?
Why does hate trump love in so much of the world?
