Group targeting judge not acting as Christians

The religious group that seeks to unseat the Supreme Court Justice David Wiggins is confused about its religion. Jesus redeemed his followers from the Jewish law. Galatians 3:13. That is what makes them Christians and not of the Jewish religion. If they are not bound to that law, then why are their uninformed ministers stirring them up?

Jesus didn’t leave them without a guide. He gave them the Commandment to love one another and he also told them how and why they should obey the law of love. At Matthew 7:12, he said the Golden Rule fulfills the law and prophets. Jesus also tells them at Luke 6:37-38 why they should love and not condemn because as they do to others so it will be done to them again in good measure, in Asia they call that karma. Most important, at Matthew 6:15 he tells them if they don’t forgive others their trespasses God will not forgive theirs.

My advice from experience is to try harder to obey your God’s order to love one another and less hard at doing God’s job of judging.
