Is it right?

A friend wrote in to ask me about homosexuality.  I think that they were asking, Shouldn't we tell people when we think that they are wrong?

We who grew up with Midwestern old fashioned values have a long list of things that we think are right and wrong.  At some point though we need to ask ourselves what business is it of ours?  I don't think that God put Christians here to be the morality police.  We don't get to vote on what other people do in their own homes or bedrooms for that matter.

The Bible teaches that we are all in the same boat. We are all sinners.  There are not categories of sinners.  One category for those with what we consider little sins and another for what we consider big sins.  We are all in the same boat.  All sinners.

I don't think it is our job to straighten people out.  That is God's job.  He has the Holy Spirit and he does not need our help.  Maybe we need to work on the board in our own eye.  I know that I do.

It's a beautiful day in God's world be sure to see the good.
