We are suppose to love that does not mean tolerance for wickedness. To love someone is to bring them out of darkness into the light, out of hatred into love, out of sin into righteousness. We are not capable of any of this being completely flawed. Fortunately however 'What is impossible with man is possible with God.' So with 'God with us' Emmanuel we can be used for his purposes. The Christians I know are encouraging and sacrificing and humble. I am honored to consider them part of my fellowship. But I must be careful not to judge ouselves righteous just as we all should be careful not to judge ourselves judgemental. We are sinners, and without Christ nothing. 'It is time for us to become less and for him to become more.'
