Love, Diversity and Tolerance

Love, Diversity, and Tolerance
all scriptures-NIV
Matthew 23:37-40

Love the Lord your God with all our heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself. All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.

Love, its why we are here.

John 3:16-17

For God so love the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

Is there a better way to save a selfish world than to show the world how to love?

Romans 14:9-13

For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living. You then, why do you judge your brother? Or why do you look down on your brother? For we will all stand before God's judgment seat. It is written:
"As surely as I live, says the Lord, every knee will bow before me, every tongue will confess to God."
So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God. Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in your brother's way.

Someone who speaks of love and then speaks of intolerance for those who are different speaks with a forked tongue.

Galatians 3:28-29

There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

The most important aspect of a person's life is their spiritual life. Encourage one another to love God and each other, let Christ handle the rest.

Freedom can only truly exist where love can be freely chosen.

Diversity is the training ground of love.

Those who speak of tolerance and then push for laws restricting free speech are speaking with the same forked tongue.
