WHAT ARE OUR RIGHTS?

What are our rights in the Kingdom?  Luke 6:27-31.
     Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you (keep doing good).
     Bless those who curse you.  Pray for those who mistreat you.  Turn the other cheek.  Do not stop him/her from taking what they want--in fact, give it to them.  Give to everyone who asks.  Do not demand it back.
     Do not judge.  Do not condemn.  Forgive.  For with the measure you use, it will be given to you!
     Be careful what you see and hear.  The Holy Spirit will give you what to say when you're in a tight spot.
     You are the light of the world.
      Do not resist evil
     Enter through the narrow gate; and narrow is the road, and only a few find it.

     This is my thought on the subject of fighting for our rights in this world.  In our schools today, there are more and more religions, and they all want a spot.  If we fight to have our faith in the schools, won't other parents of other religions do the same?  What do you want your children taught in school?  May be better to teach them at home.  Could it be that God, in His own way, may be protecting our children by keeping religion  out of schools, where children are most vulnerable?
     We live under a different code of standards.  One of them is, do not resist evil.  I believe God is our protector, and has a great plan and path for us to follow.  No one can stop love in schools!  No one can stop light from shining.  No one can stop salt from preserving!
     Love - Shine - Preserve!

     John 3:16.  A work in progress.
