Did you ever wonder why people can be so intolerant of others. It seems that they are not perfect either and that time, patience and love could help change a person, and not just blantly saying you are not worthy because you are not exactly like us. It should not be that way we should love them, accept them and give them the gospel not wait till they are acceptable in our own site to give them the word of God. God does not turn them away and say you are not worthy to hear the gospel so netiher should we. If some guy has long hair so what let God work in his heart don't tell him to get out of your santuary. and if some one has piercings and tattoos just don't exclude them from things. open it up let him see the love of God through you not the disgust you might feel because "oh no they have a piercing and oh horrid they don't look exactly like us. It should not be that way, yet I meet so many people that are that way. People close to me rather help those who are not the same ,but different turn there heads and close the doors on them saying they are not worthy. We need to share the gospel and be compassionate against others and not be selfish. Because that is what we do when we refuse to share the gospel with others because they are different. We say I don't have to share my gift with others I don't want to. Do you see God saying" I made you but I am not going to give you this gift of salvation because i don't like the way you dress. It is so trite. You can tell a friend it is wrong ,but don't cut them off and think because they didn't listen to you the friendship and testimony of Christ is out the door too. Get over it not eveyone is going to listen to you. Let them make their own mistakes. You can voice your opinion ,but that is exactly what it is you don't make the decisions for them.You can't, don't expect them to. People are not going to listen to you they will betray you and oh my offend you get over it and let God do the work in their life not you.
