Worth More Than a Thousand Words

I am not talking about photographs. I am talking about forgiveness. When Christians forgive, even the most horrible of transgressions, it speaks volumes about our God and His church. It leaves the world speechless. It is better than a gospel track or a sermon.

Remember the massacre in the Amish community and the amazing forgiveness given. This also happened with the families of the victims in Colorado. Forgiveness. It is Christlikeness.

Remember that when someone tries to equate Christianity with any other religion, especially Islam. I don't think forgiveness is even on the radar of Islam. Vengeance is more their cup of tea.

See the contrast.
