Rain Upon the Rightous and the Unrighteous


Jesus said that God makes the sun shine upon the evil and the good and the rain to fall upon the righteous and the unrighteous. (Matthew 5:45) 

Jesus said to let the wheat and the weeds keep growing up together until the end of time. Otherwise, the wheat might be pulled up along with the weeds. (Matthew 13:24-30) 


In Athens, Paul told the crowd that we are all God's offspring (in the sense that He created us all), and used their own phrase " 'For in Him we live and move and have our being.' " (Acts 17:16-34) 

And, yet we have Christians in developed and developing nations who think it is appropriate to squeeze out those who do not share our beliefs. I ask you to reflect seriously on this.
