Chris.
There
should never ever be hatred in God’s Church. The Church is supposed to be a
place of Love. Many people come to Church for the first time because they hear
the news that God loves them, that God is Love. Some of these people are
speedily disillusioned because they find hatred and strife in the Church. This
is not just a sad and bad emotional fact but it is also a sign that we should
not attend that Church because they are blocking people from entering the
Kingdom of God.
