I am respectfully writing you , and other pastors concerning the recent tension in our society concerning racial equability. I my self am a follower of the lord Jesus Christ. Jesus taught his follower the right way to deal with their enemies. He never taught people an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. He taught do not seek revenge on one’s enemies, but to love those who hate you, bless those who persecute you, pray for those who despite fully use you. Matthew 5:44, Luke 6:28

The Bible also teaches that we are not to seek revenge on our enemies, but leave it to the wrath of God

“Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.”

I believe that if we want equality, freedom, peace and prosperity. It will only come though souls coming to in repentance of sin through faith in Jesus the Christ, who takes us off the path of condemnation and places us on a new path of pardoned and in correct fellowship with God,We the give of eternal and abounding life.

Is it not a Pastor of God’s flock, the duty to spread the Gospel of Christ, to disciple the flock to know the word of God and to lovingly obey it?

We who have been called by God will be held accountable for our steward ship of what God has call us to do. Meaning Ther is God’s way of doing thing , and there is our own way.

God’s ways brings healing , peace, abundant live. Our ways brings misunderstanding ,disunity ,unrest , destruction .

My conclusion is that this country has been the brightest beacon of liberty, equality , opportunity in the world. But mind you this nation’s record is not spotless.

People of all races have worked hard , sacrificed together to over this nations enemies both foreign and domestic.

I believe in the darkest times of our nation people of all races have gathered under the Christian faith and have cried out to God for guidance , faith, strength , healing and God has always delivered our country out of the darkest times we have face .

It is my prayer and challenge to you leader to challenge your people to the same.

Respectfully yours

Stephen J. Vattimo
