Point of Christianity is love, not judgment
By Hannah Banfield | Dec. 8, 2009I have been very upset lately by the people supposedly “evangelizing” on Turlington Plaza. As I listen to them screaming judgments and insults, it breaks my heart. I have been a Christian for a few years now and while I still have many questions, one thing I do know is that the basis of Christianity is love. “For God so loved the world...” (John 3:16). “And do everything in love...” (1 Corinthians 16:14). These people are in no way showing God’s love but are giving Christians a reputation of being hateful and self-righteous. I am here to say that what they are portraying is not Christianity! Whoever they claim to be witnesses of is not Jesus because their teachings are not rooted in love.
