Following Judah's Lion

Being Christ

If you are willing to communicate the gospel by words to an illegal Mexican, but you refuse to feed, clothe, and help him because he is illegal, then you, my friend, are living as an American and not a Believer. There are many more Christians whose lifestyles are American rather than Christian. It will cost you little to minister to those who need help. You will be accused of being liberal; you will be accused of breaking the law; you will be accused of being unpatriotic; you will be accused of sinning against God; you will be accused of sedition; and you will be accused of disobeying the Scriptures.
In the end though those accusations should mean nothing to us. Christ Himself was accused of these things and it cost Him His life. Perhaps, if we lived as did He, it would cost us ours as well.
