Jesus Has Created One New Humanity

I love my brother Stephen and he loves me. We don’t always agree on everything, of course, but when we disagree we try to treat each other with respect.

For example: I would never take a book that Stephen likes and values and throw it on a bonfire – no matter how much I disagreed with the content of that book.

I don’t know if I need to remind everyone that Muslims are our brothers and sisters, brought into the Father’s life by Jesus even though they don’t believe it yet (Rom. 5:18, Eph. 2:15). And I don’t know if I need to remind everyone that burning our siblings’ prized possessions is not the way to help them discover the truth of who they are in Christ.

But just in case you do need a reminder in advance of the planned insanity coming this weekend in Florida, I thought I’d go ahead and remind you.
