It bears repeating that our beliefs and principles form the foundation of what binds those in this ministry together. As it says in scripture, Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth. 1 John 3:18 NIV
Our actions and deeds begin with our thoughts, and intentions must always be based in genuine love and truth.
It is on this basis people show their true colors, and demonstrate their integrity and purity of heart.
However, it is equally important to be cautious and refrain from judging your fellow man. That doesn't mean we ignore what may appear to be failures of character or bad behaviors, but rather it calls us to pause and use discernment with a strong measure of grace to respond wisely.
