A Response to the Response to the Arrest of Pastor James Coates
"Persecution! We’re being persecuted!" it's being shouted from everywhere from roof-tops, from street-corners, from social-media as though it were some new thing as though we were the first to ever feel its touch (however lightly) as though our brothers and sisters did not already know more than this have not been being persecuted (really persecuted, I mean not this made up stuff, but actually ridiculed, and outcast, and beaten, and jailed, and killed not just told to stay home, or to limit their capacity, or to simply wear a mask, but actually and deliberately harmed) as though far worse has not been being done to our brothers, to our sisters to the body of Christ for all the centuries for all the millennia since Christ told us that to love God since Christ told us that to love each other were the greatest of all God’s commands, and hanging hooks for the all Law and all the Prophets
sadly
we seem overly concerned for ourselves, and insufficiently concerned for our neighbour
and worse much, much worse
we seem overly concerned for ourselves, and insufficiently concerned for God
