Dwain Northey (Gen X)

Today Christians remember a Jewish Carpenter that was hung from a Roman cross at the request of his faith for teaching that love was greater than money and power.

I always questioned how this was a good day for that Carpenter… we are told from his faithful that he did this selfless act for us, and from what I can derive from those scriptures is that he wasn’t specific about who he was performing this for.

Many people today that profess themselves as followers for the carpenter that died on a Roman torture devise seem to have willfully ignored the lessons he taught. They do not ‘welcome the stranger’ as he commanded his followers. His distain for the money changers appear to be the same people they worship.

So how was the sacrifice the Peace & Love Carpenter made 2000 years ago a good day?
