It's easy to demonise those on the other side of socio-political debate: Antifa, Trump supporters, BLM rioters, etc.
Be slow to judge. We'll each have plenty of our own sin to give account of before the Judgement Seat.

I have the uncomfortable feeling that, regardless of who I vote for in the next election, the government might still get in.

God treats us far better than we deserve.
Lutherans gave me a love for the Bible.
Pentecostals, a love for the Spirit.
Reformed, a theology of the atonement.
Congregationalists, a view of church government.
Baptists, a method of baptism.
Methodists, lessons on prayer.
Catholics, GK Chesterton.
I’m a theological mutt.
It's not in the public sphere that God's leaders are made.
It's in the private times, alone with Him.
10am. Steak, egg, bacon, sausage. What's fellow carnivore @sinbach having for breakfast?
Glad the number of 'non-religious' has gone up here in the UK.
It's hard to share the Gospel with those who think they're already Christian.

Trusting @sinbach would approve.
Great for Carnivores on the go.
In a free society, it's often much easier to criticise external structures, movements, churches, politicians, etc, than it is to identify and repent of our own sin.
'A violent storm arose... and each called to his own god.'
-Jonah 1
It's when violent storms hit that we find out who our true gods are.
‘If I never spoke of hell, I should look on myself as an accomplice of the devil.’
-J. C. Ryle
Over 2 billion people have never heard the gospel once while some have heard it hundreds of times.
Is there any greater ‘justice’ issue that Christians must face?
