Are we not over this kind of stuff yet?

 I received an email the other day from someone that I do not know.  They were insisting that if you are not baptized by immersion, then you are going to hell.  Are we not over this kind of stuff yet?

Jesus isn't keeping track of who is baptized and who is not.  He does not care what you believe about the second coming, baptism, or the bible.  

Jesus cares about us learning to love.  Love God, love others.  That is all there is.  All the law and the prophets hang on this.  Everything hangs on this.  Every doctrine, every opinion, every everything is measured by the practice of love.

No love, then we are a noise.  No love, then we are a clashing cymbal.  No love and we are missing it.  May we all spend more time, much more time working on being loving and less time, much less time worrying about doctrine.

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