COLUMN: Simply, God is love

I would like to congratulate Peggy Sorenson on a well-written essay in that appeared on Saturday in My Turn.

As a Christian I believe our job is to love everyone and let God be the judge as He alone is the only one capable of looking into the hearts of men. The people who are being singled out by believers are people who were created by God and God loves them every bit as much as he loves you and me.

Think about the prodigal’s two sons or the workers in the field who were all paid the same regardless of how long they worked. The best way to show you are a Christian is by your love. 1 John 4:7-8 Beloved let us love one another. For love is of God and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He that does not love does not know God for God is Love…And on this I rest my faith.
