A Topeka, KS, area church says it will demonstrate at the funerals of those killed in the January 8, 2011 shooting aimed at Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ), including the funeral of a 9-year-old girl killed that day.
That seems to me to be a hate-filled action…or at least one that doesn’t express what I think God expresses about God…and what God calls those who follow the Way of Christ to do (John 15:12).
Tonight’s the second in my series with the Branded UMY at First United Methodist Church of Wagoner, OK. Our topic is “Who does God see when God Looks at me?” My second answer is, “one who is Redeem ( -ed, -able).”
What do you think? Are those who claim the name of Christ who do seemingly hate-filled things “redeemed”? Are they “redeemable”?
Perhaps we could extend the question to include last week’s topic: Does God love people who claim Christ and still do bad things?
What do you think?
Blessings,
Michael

Had a great time @ BRANDED! Heard lots of people talking about how God looks at people we don’t like…and at us!
