A good part of my life was lived in the south.
As a child I remember segregation although I didn’t know that’s what it was called.
I did not understand why some people could use a certain bathroom, sit in a certain seat on the bus, eat at certain places but others could not…..
I still do not understand why we judge a person’s value or worth based on the color of their skin, or ethnic identity.

What I do understand is when we have hatred towards anyone, when we deny their value or worth, God is not in it. In the earliest words of Scripture, God spoke: “Let us make human beings in our image, make them reflecting our nature. If we all were made to reflect His image, does that not make us equal?
The Bible tells us there are things God hates but people are not among them. With one exception.*
The Lord tests the righteous, but His soul hates the wicked and the one who loves violence Psalm 11:5
The ills of our world are not limited to any one race, religion, or people group. Evil and hatred are equal opportunity employers.
God hates evil. Evil that encourages people to hate and diminish the worth of another. He hates those who choose to align themselves with evil.
Evil and violence like we saw on both sides in Charlottesville.
I do not believe God sees this as a racial, ethnic, or ideological issue. I believe God sees hatred and evil as a heart problem, brought on by sin that afflicts all mankind.
With that in mind I would like to present two thoughts on this issue.

One: For those whose vision for America includes hatred, racism, and prejudice, oppression and tyranny on any level this is not your country.
My dad who served and fought in WW II along with many others would be horrified to see the symbol of evil that many gave their lives to defeat, displayed along with the American flag.
People who commit acts of hatred like we saw in Charlottesville are not part of the America my dad grew up in and fought for, or the America many have given their lives for.
Two: If you preach a gospel that justifies hate, classifies one race or ethinic group as inferior to another, you are not followers of Christ.
Using the name of Christ, claiming to be a follower of Christ while promoting racism and hatred is evil and contradictory, anti-christ.
By definition a Christian is a Christ follower and nowhere in Scripture can justification for these views be found.

The mission of a Christian a follower of Christ is to love the world as He did. To reach out to those around us. Whoever or whatever they might be, inviting them in not shutting them out. We do not have the right to declare any person unworthy of the love of Jesus Christ. Or less valuable. Even though He hates evil and those who participate in it, His love still offers forgiveness and redemption to all.
Our responsibility is to love even those who hate. That somehow they might find the truth that will set them free.
And God will take care of the rest.
