Some
believers compartmentalize faith by having one set of standards for the church
and another for the world. This is especially evident in today’s world of
politics. Paul spoke to Republicans and Democrats alike when he said, “Do not let
any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for
building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who
listen. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed
for the day of redemption. Get rid of all bitterness, rage
and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other,
just as in Christ God forgave you” (Eph 4:29-32 NIV).
