Acts of Random Kindness
"Acts of random kindness," is currently a catch phrased being promoted both on conventual as social media. Other popular phrase are, "neighbor helping neighbor, helping hands and we are all in this together." Sounds like it is popular today for secular culture to be following in the foot steps of Jesus Christ.
He told his faithful flowers to be kind and gentle to one another. His famous new commandment, "Love one another as I have first loved you." And, "Love you your neighbor as yourself." He instructed his followers to kind and generous to those in need.
Jesus Christ was against sexual, race and social barriers. Frequently running into conflict with both the religious and specular. He was a social revolutionary. He wanted to change the cultural norms of his day. And create a better and more humane society and world to live in. Would he believe in Black Lives Matter? Absolutely! He was very vocal about racial injustice in any form. Would he join peaceful protests! Absolutely and he would lead them himself.
Would he stop landlords from evicting widows and orphans? Of course he would. Would he forgive a man or a woman caught in the acts of adultery? Of course he would with the admonition.
"Woman where are your accusers? She replied no where at all. "Neither do I condemn you go and sin no more."
Jesus Christ not only had the power to heal people. He had the authority to forgive them as well. Frequently healing on the Jewish Sabbath Day. Jesus Christ committed several acts of random kindness contained in the four gospels of the Holy Bible. Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. I highly recommend reading the Bible for yourselves beginning with the gospel of John.
Love in Christ Jesus!
