If you are a follower of Jesus pay heed to what you are witnessing in Portland, OR. Ask yourself, “Where does this road lead?” For that matter, “Where did this road begin?” This is not a wrong road taken in the sense of it being a terrible mistake. And, if you’ll allow me to continue my metaphor, it’s not the end of the road either. It’s merely a stop along the way toward a planned destination intended by folks who pit the left and the right against one another for their own means. This social upheavel has leaders…and not the ones standing at the front of those mobs. Please, my brothers and sisters, come out from the social morass of the so called right/left political division. There’s another way…and I don’t mean libertairian, green, or whatever. If you are a Christ follower you are first and foremost a citizen of heaven…an ambassador. You don’t represent the land you are sent to; you represent the one to which you really belong. Don’t get pulled into the local mess. There is always a diabolical unity behind the so called competing interest groups. There’s a better way…a narrow way…The Way, The Truth, The Life.
