Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? (From 1 Corinthians 6)
Saint Paul is saying this to you, to immigrants, to refugees, to criminals, to Republicans, to Democrats, to Evangelicals, to Catholics, to Lutherans, to ALL denominations, to ALL skin colors, to ALL nationalities, to ALL sexual orientations, to ALL genders, to convicts, to drug addicts, to alcoholics, to skinny people, to fluffy people, to those in nursing homes, to those with disabilities in group homes, to the rich, to the poor, to your competitors, to your former colleagues, to our sisters and brothers of other faiths, to agnostics, to atheists, to those who you’ve wronged, to those who have wronged you, and to ALL! As a result, it’s time we treat ourselves and EVERYONE else as you would treat Jesus and as he would treat you—with LOVE! We are ALL members of the Body of Christ and we are ALL part of God’s plan, so let us love ourselves and let us love one another! If you believe in the Bible and if you believe in Jesus, my sisters and brothers in Christ, there is NO OTHER WAY to live! Amen
