As Christians,
we should not judge or condemn people based on their actions. We should
acknowledge sin and let the Holy Spirit do the conviction and conversion. The
problem we have these days is that some Christians play as God. Manipulating
scriptures to suite a few people’s interests at the expense of others is wrong.
Discriminating people based on church traditions may draw the discriminated
even further from the truth. As Christians, we ought to go back to the truth
and ask ourselves of what Jesus would do whenever making decisions. Can one
fight sin without fighting the sinner? Yes, with effective communication. Let
us ponder on Jesus’ reaction when they brought an adulterous woman to him. The
rest of the people accused the adulterous woman but Jesus’ approach was a
different one. His response was one that condemns none but one that is
compelling to stop someone from sinning anymore (John 8: 2-11).
