We've lost our collective minds as Christians, rejoicing when others suffer and turning our backs on those who are different from us. It's time we return to the marks of a true Christian as outlined in Romans 12:9-21, which calls us to let love be genuine, bless those who persecute us, and overcome evil with good.

• The fractures in the Christian community have become increasingly visible this year
• Romans 12:9-21 outlines the marks of a true Christian: genuine love, perseverance in prayer, blessing enemies
• Christians are rejoicing when others lose their jobs and turning their backs on those who are different
• The marks of a true Christian have nothing to do with money, church size, or titles
• We must repent for the hate, envy, jealousy and lies we've been spreading
• Christians can't just wait for Jesus to return without fulfilling their responsibility to be salt and light
• We need to examine how we can introduce others to Jesus when we harbor so much hate
• Christians are called to love their enemies, feed them, and overcome evil with good

Please share this message with someone who needs to hear it. Together, we can turn things around and get back on right footing with God.
