Flipping the Script… Yes, Please…

 

As those of us who claim to believe and follow the Christianity that so many politicians tend to swing around like a “vote for me” sign weigh our choices, let’s be sure not to forget the character we’re supposed to aspire to. 

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. (Galatians 5:22-23, NASB)

Sometimes I feel like we have these two backwards, and by “we” I mean those of us who claim to be “little Christs,” particularly when we approach the public forum.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. (Galatians 5:22-23)

The acts of the flesh are obvious: …hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions… (Galatians 5:19-20)
