God loves the person but not the sin. That is where we have a hard time. We relate the person to the sin. For instance.... Your sister's husband is a verbally abusive drunk. Human nature is to build the wedge between yourself and God by hating everything about the drunken brother in law. But God wants us to still love him. It doesn't mean to condone the behavior, but we have to love the brother in law but not the abususe cause by the alcoholism. It's tough. And not human nature at all. But if we can love the person as Christ would, I think we move that much closer to Christ.Annie Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07774350914255922163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1906161860339971347.post-66205543181940781362009-04-02T06:28:00.000-05:002009-04-02T06:28:00.000-05:00Koffijah - that was Good!(Okay. You saw that one ...Koffijah - that was Good!<BR/>(Okay. You saw that one coming, I'm sure.)<BR/><BR/>I'm a sucker for a good object lesson, and yours is quite effective in clarifying the difference between good and good. As far as seeing people as God sees them, that is SO MUCH easier said than done! For me, anyway.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for this post. This should definitely go into the book.<BR/><BR/>Sincerely,<BR/><BR/>Katdish<BR/>Your Pretend Editorkatdishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09210738418270395622noreply@blogger.com
