Do You Love your people?
If you would ask everyone in the World do
you love your People? I believe 90 % of them will always answer, yes I love my
people. If someone would ask me this question I will give the same answer. I
believe you will do the same, by telling I love my people.
But there seems to be contradictions with Christ
Jesus our Lord God, about this question. Jesus said “He
that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he
that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.” Matthew 10:37 Father
or Mother, Son or Daughter, it includes all kindred and makes up a People. What
does Jesus tells us here? What He actually meant here is to Love Him more than
any other personalities in the Entire World, and not to hate them. What do you
and I got to say … I love my people more than Jesus? Or I love Jesus more than
my people…!
There are some extremists for God
and in other hand for people, we need a balanced life and not to be extreme in
one side. If you really love God you will surely love your people. Because “Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God
with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the
second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.” Matthew
22:37-39. By reading this we easily understood what God want us to be in Loving
God and men. There is no way to be too extreme for God and for men, but one
thing “God is and must be the first Priority” in
lives. And not just God and our people … every men in the entire world … this
is the Command form the Lord ! someone ask Jesus ‘who’s my neighbor’ ? Jesus’
answer was simple, and told him a
parable, of ‘the good Samaritan’. So our relative is the one who is not related
to us, who is a stranger became our relative and people in God’s way, if we
really Love God it became our way of life.
What’s going on here are we not talking
about loving our own people? Why should I love others? You might ask me this
question, but that’s not the way if we only love our own people and hating
others, if this so it would mean ‘Racialism’. Jesus came for His people but His
people crucified Him “He
came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave He power to become
the sons of God, even to them that
believe on his name:” John 1:11-12, this
passage is talking about us, because The Jews, Jesus’ own people rejected Jesus
we can come to Jesus and be the Children of God. It’s a privileged for us. Obviously
Jesus was not accepted by His own people, because they were expecting the
Political Messiah not the Spiritual Messiah, they will received the political
one in the future who is the Anti-Christ. So don’t expect your people to be
politic, they will be far from the Truth of God. If you love your people teach them about God,
help them know the Lord Jesus Christ, lead them to know the Word of God more
than any other things.
Why many racial problems are
happening in the world today? because people don’t want to know more of God and
care little about God. It’s not just happening in our Nation, it’s all over the
world the main reason is No God needed in their lives. So here is the best suggestion
if you Love your people Lead them to know God, and don’t hate other people
groups … God wants us to love every one even our enemies, if you hate there is
no God in your life. God bless you … !
