Then another THUMP! Thu, 05 Nov 2009 04:17:00 GMT 11616396 David Burchett http://www.christianity.com/blogs/DBurchett/11610475/ I have learned to reserve my use of the word hate. I don’t say that I hate those who oppose my faith. I don’t hate those who have opposite political views. I don’t even hate the Michigan Wolverines even though that will get my Buckeye passport revoked. I do, however, have a few things for which I will use the word hate.

I refer, of course, to IBTY Syndrome.

If He has placed a desire for people to impact the culture through political action I am not about to question their motives. But I do believe that those of us who claim the name of Jesus need to communicate our views with grace and compassion. Fri, 14 Aug 2009 06:17:00 GMT 11607392 David Burchett
