Let the sinless one cast the first stone.....

As you already know, same sex marriages have been legalized across the United States of America as of yesterday.  This has caused a wide array of opinions throughout my news feed on Facebook, Twitter and IG.  Some people are rejoicing and some people are mad and being hateful, filled with disgust.....
Let's remember one thing, we are all human, and we all sin differently.  In the Bible there is a story about a woman who had been cheating on her husband, and back then it was the cultural norm to stone a woman who was found in the act of adultery.  So everyone made a circle around her, stone in hand, ready to throw the first one, when Jesus came up and simply said...... "He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her." John 8:7 KJV....... And you know what all of those people did?  They dropped their stones, one by one and walked away.. Jesus looked at the woman and told her that her sins were forgiven and to SIN NO MORE.... 
As a Christian, AKA and follower of Christ, we are to act as HE would, not as we would like in the flesh.. Jesus could have easily said, yes, let's stone this woman, for she has sinned against God.. But he didn't.. He chose to love instead, and she went on to sin no more.. Perhaps we can do the same in this situation...
Our words in online forums and our words to people face to face mean a  lot, and we, as Christians are representing the One True King EVERYWHERE we go.  In fact, we are the only Bible that most people read.   What is your life showing?  

2 Timothy 2:24-26 says.... "24 And the Lord's servant[a] must not be quarrelsome but kind to everyone, able to teach, patiently enduring evil, 25 correcting his opponents with gentleness. God may perhaps grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth, 26 and they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, after being captured by him to do his will."

Let's strive to do that... To truly live out God's Word... Let's NOT BE QUARRELSOME, but KIND.. Wait, what?  Yes, KIND.. Not my words, but God's.... Think about when you're a child and you did something wrong, and your parents yelled at you and told you how bad it was... Did it help you or make it worse?  It made it worse, and made you feel bad and it didn't make you want to change!  But think about the times when your parents loved on you when you did wrong, and helped to guide you in the right direction.. Completely different emotions painted in your head at that, right?
Let's aim to be that ''parent'' to people who sin differently than we do, let's get our brothers and sisters on the right track, and pray for our country...

After all, ONE person can make a huge difference and it starts with YOU!
