Have We Forgotten Who We Used to Be?

Jerram Barrs:
When people spend time with us do they more often see us filled with love and joy, or do they more often see us disparaging situations and those we disagree with? As Christians, are we demonstrating the grace and love of God in our words about non-Christians, or does it feel better to poke fun at, look down on, or even sneer at those who do not yet get the gospel of grace? Have we forgotten that we are Christians because of God's sheer mercy and grace alone?
(HT:  Mark Wolter)

Great thoughts from a great man. Jerram is one who truly demonstrates the grace and love of God as well as anyone I've ever met. May we all follow his example and heed his reminder!
