Jesus Godcha!
Whenever I feel like I should condemn a person, or a group, I try to remember what an “artful dodger” Jesus was. With the tax collectors, He said, “Give Unto Caesar.” With sinners, Roman soldiers and hypocrites, he included them in “All God’s children.” And pleaded for the ones who’d condemned Him, saying, “Forgive them.. they know not what they do.” Strong and loud voices fill up our world, but it’s still hard to get past one from long ago.
