@ padraic - I appreciate your response. I used to feel hate towards people before I became a Christian, just like you do towards me for what I believe in. Not everyone who says they are a Christian is, and these people have given others the wrong impressions about Christianity. Regardless of whether it is true or not, the Bible teaches us to love one another, to live in peace and harmony. This is my vision and the vision of the real church. If you don't believe me then study it for yourself. What reward is there with hate, anger, ignorance, dishonesty, vindictiveness and unforgiveness? I never found any, instead, I have come to realise it is much more rewarding personally to desire peace, love, harmony, tolerance, mercy and forgiveness. Hate causes seperation. Love brings togetherness. Regardless of what I believe, I want people to see that love is indeed more rewarding than hate. You hate me, I do not hate you friend and I tell you the truth, I feel nothing but compassion and sorrow for you, sorrow that you do not know the kind of love that I do. Nothing can possibly give oneself more joy than that what 'is found' in the Lord Jesus and the unprecidented grace and mercy of God! Regardless of whether my beliefs are right, this love, joy and compassion are real, and nothing can be more rewarding or satisfy the soul more than this!
