Bad people Quote by David A. Powlison
““First, notice the weather. “Our Father . . . makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust” (Matthew 5: 45). We need sun and rain in order to have food, and God doesn’t discriminate in doing basic good. Can you do that too? Second, notice how even bad people treat their friends right. “If you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same?”( Matthew 5: 46). Can you take it a step up from bad people? Third, notice how all people everywhere recognize a special bond between family members. “If you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same?”( Matthew 5: 47). Can you take it a step up from the us-them loyalty that comes naturally to everyone?””
