Do You Have The Fruits of the Spirit?

It has broken my heart when I see Christians supporting and getting their picture taken with politicians who use foul language, talking nasty about women, lying, cheating and other sinful actions. We must be known for our love of JESUS and people and not our politics. Look where politics has gotten us! We are coming apart at the seams. I have always said politics is the playground of Satan. We need peacemakers, not hate makers! Look at all the hate in America that really raised its ugly, demonic head in the last 7 years. Pastor Dewey I adore this from Kurt Bunda of OutReach Magazine: • Masks are done … masks are back and COVID controversies continue. • We’re paying about a dollar more for a gallon of gas than we did this time last year. • Religious exemptions were denied for many and people were fired from their place of employment for noncompliance. • Divisions in families and churches over all things COVID still happen a lot. Sadly, that list isn’t exhaustive. There are many other points of conflict in our culture. (And probably a lot more to come.) Regardless of where you land politically or what you believe about any of the many issues that exist, if you are a Christ-follower, you must do your best to look, sound and be like Jesus. Frankly, it doesn’t matter if your position on any particular topic is correct or not if you are not living correctly.
