LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

We, as Followers of the teachings of Christ, must live a life different from the world. Over time, I have seen too many Followers use the world’s teachings to address problems. We are quick to make fun of other, belittle others, seek revenge on others, act crudely towards others. Our default is the world, and how the world acts.

We must always remember, Love wins. We need to focus on love in everything we do – we do not seek revenge, we seek forgiveness. We do not seek to be crude to others, we seek grace. We live in the Hope of Christ, not in the despair of this world.

To some, this may sound simplistic, and, in all honesty it is, but sometimes simplistic is the way to go – don’t make our faith walk complicated. Love wins.
