As Christians, aren't we supposed to be more Christ like than non-Christians?

@1BeauBlake @KYJessicaAlene @CTmagazine That depends on what law was violated. You can't really compare felonious acts to crossing an imaginary line. There's also a difference between being held in prison and being sent to a different country. Send the child back with their parents. It's unnecessary to keep them.

@profit_seeker @CuomoPrimeTime @ninaturner Pointing out the sins of another or hypocrisy of another does not justify your own sings or hypocritical behavior. Neither act is Christ like, but instead you focus on defending a political party over defending what is right.

@777CHACO @CuomoPrimeTime @ninaturner Actually, Jesus did dine with wealthy individuals and stayed with them on occasion. Some chose to change and follow Christ while others chose to keep their wealth and continue focusing on acquiring more money.

@USAFirst55 @CuomoPrimeTime @CNN @ninaturner I think people deserve a kind response regardless of which country they were born in. Besides, how can you equate crossing an imaginary line to felonious acts? One person ends up in prison and the other returns to their home country as a free citizen.

@AfBengalsnation @CuomoPrimeTime @CNN @ninaturner The law doesn't require such actions be taken. Accommodations can be made and leniency can be shown. Although these people have broken the law, we still have the option to forgiven and respond with kindness/love.

@LauraD972342 @CuomoPrimeTime @CNN @ninaturner @DNC There's hypocrisy in both parties. Christ didn't support war, the death penalty, violence (even in self defense), accumulation of wealth while others go hungry, abortion, forced generosity, etc...

@lukieash18 @CuomoPrimeTime @ninaturner It's not about seeing them as less than human. It's about them justifying their actions. In their own minds, what they're doing isn't wrong because in some twisted way they formed a false reality in which Christ would do the same thing.

@KYJessicaAlene @CTmagazine It's more about disregarding the AG and showing leniency instead of punishing to the full extent of the law. Those people could be given the opportunity for legal citizenship or the family could be kept united, neither of which violates the law.

[The Uncommon Christian @AsWePonder]

@KYJessicaAlene @CTmagazine What law instructs me to take children from their parents? Our laws allow for exceptions and accommodations to keep families together. The problem is that people are abusing existing laws to intentionally inflict harm on families.

@SusanDa50168535 @stealthygeek @gm_wggames I understand that it is our faith in Christ that saves us, but we need to understand as a society that faith is more than verbally announcing that you believe in Christ. When you truly have faith, your actions reflect that.

@time_sensative @stealthygeek Evangelicals aren't Paul centered. The works of Paul reflect the teachings of Christ. Most people that claim to be Christian try to change Christ to justify their sinful behavior instead of changing to emulate Christ.

@CPlainscript @stealthygeek @anne_tappe People in general are hypocrites. Christianity isn't about a specific political party.

[The Uncommon Christian @AsWePonder]

@LovLikeJesus Although it is not our works/actions that save us, our actions reflect our faith. If you verbally claim faith but continue to lie, cheat, steal, etc... then you don't have faith.

@Thru_The_Word I wish that all those who call themselves Christian lived by faith.

@BrianZahnd Paul obeyed the laws in place by the governing authorities. The only way Romans 13 would help the Nazis is if the people completely ignored the second half of the chapter in which Paul instructs people to love.

@marcrowd @BrutellaDeKill @cindymclennan @JamesMartinSJ @KatCapps The Bible and Christ's teachings are straight forward. We just seem to have a habit of over complicating it.

[The Uncommon Christian @AsWePonder]

@JamesMartinSJ Although we're instructed to respect authority, we're also told to love others and forgive.

[The Uncommon Christian @AsWePonder]

@thinkbible1611 We're told that we must have faith in Christ. I agree that our salvation depends on nothing more and nothing less; however, we're told that we will walk by faith if saved. How does faith shape your actions as you walk through life?
