A red letter Bible is a Bible where the words of Jesus are printed in red ink. Many people love the red letter Bible because they love the words of Jesus. There is even an official group called Red Letter Christians.
The implication of a red letter Bible is that the words of Jesus stand a little higher than the others. To me, to read the words of Jesus is the core of Christianity. It is just the pure and simple teachings of kindness and non-judgement.
So many people want to read the Bible and they ask me where to start. I suggest the gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. This is where most of the red letters are.
In a world of crazy things that some Christians teach and practice, I thank God for the words of Jesus. Do not judge. Love your enemies. Forgive.
It's really pretty simple.
It's a beautiful day in God's world be sure to see the good.
