Colossians 3:12-17
Now therefore as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on the bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering:
Forbearing (to be Patient, Forgiving, Tolerant, and Merciful) of one another, and forgiving one another, if any man has a quarrel to another: even as Christ forgave, you do the same.
And above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfectness.
And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to that which you are called in one body, and be thankful: Let the word of Christ dwell in you abundance in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing your own selves, in Psalms, and hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with a grace in your hearts to the Lord,
And whatsoever you will do, in word or deed, do all in the Name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God even the Father by him.
We are to be and show; Mercies, Kindness, Humbleness of mind, Meekness, Longsuffering, Patient, Forgiving, Tolerant, and Merciful in our lives toward one another. And we are to treat other as Christ has treated us…… He died on a cross and forgave us of our sins. He died for us and He Forgave us.
Do we honestly owe any lees to our brothers?
One reason the Church in America is week is because too many are more concerned about self rather than other putting self-first and treating other as less than.
Christ put us first in His life and He showed us that when He was beat and hung on the cross to die and did not do anything to stop the whole process.
Next time you are in church look around, these people are your family (your brother) then ask your self are you willing to die for each and every one of them?
