    1 Corinthians 6: 9-10 [9] Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be mistaken: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, [10] neither the effeminate, nor the infamous, nor the thieves, nor the greedy, nor the drunkards, nor the insulters, nor the captors, will inherit the kingdom of God.

    Hate knows no color, It's a human issue.. A fallen Man issue. It starts with a man (or woman) ignoring what God Said.. TheTruth/Right/The Word of God (found only in The Bible), and then following his own desire (rationale) to prosper his Self.. And so Man, seeking to justify himself without God (The Truth), must push down (attack, force, subdue) his brother.. Then that brother hates him.. And answers hate with hate. You cannot Love God and hate people. This is a vicious cycle that is Man's Fallen nature.. It is the "Broad" way Of Fallen Man. Man needs a Savior, And God Provided The Way! "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.” John 3:16‭-‬21 ~Jesus Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." John 14:6 We humans Need God's Word, not more words (rationales) from Men (and Women)..

    If we are to discuss this crisis with the lens of faith as the Ms. Carruther's has described wouldn't it would necessary to hear some points of faith instead of a political rant? She quoted Luke 12:56 twice but if we really are going to discern the signs of the times, as she alludes to, can't we see here in the US that we are being talked into a race war? If the Church is to be effective at all it needs to deliver the Gospel of Peace as we have received it and not tailoring it to any racial agenda.
