Looking Out for God’s Image

 

 

Loving God or loving people . . . which is easier?

 

  • I’m good with God; people make me crazy
  • I see all the trouble people face, and I get mad at God
  • Both at the same time? No way
  • Love God, love His creation

If you’re having a hard time loving people and God, maybe you’re not seeing the God’s image in the people.

Genesis 5:1b (NIV)
When God created mankind,
he made them in the likeness of God.

  1. I know we’re in His image made,
    and it’s everyone He died to save,
    but it’s hard to not to subtly shade
    the love, facing a filled mass grave.
    I don’t know how they do this stuff,
    how a human can sink so low
    to do the things that are enough
    to make hell’s demons weep in woe.
    If you love the killing monsters
    do you love their victims less?
    But in not loving, are we poseurs
    to faith we’ve no right to confess?
    The Crusaders knew how to clear the doubt:
    “Kill ’em all, let God sort ’em out.”

    “Kill ’em all, let God sort ’em out” actually is a Crusader saying, formed when dealing with uncooperative villages on the edges of Christian lands. It was more properly phrased as, “Kill them all; God will know His own.”
