Hate on any level is toxic. As Christians, believers of Christ Jesus, walking in love and compassion is  foundational.  The importance of introspection and emotionally honesty cannot be underestimated as we carry our the tenets of the Scriptures in our individual  journey.  Being a "living epistle" (2 Corinthians 3:2-3)  necessitates not only self-examination, but also inviting the Lord into our experiences so that He may to reveal and uncover those parts of our authentic self that may inhibit our ability to love our neighbor as we love ourselves (Matthew 22:37-39).  Let's unpack this together and remember the people of Buffalo, NY,  California, and countless others victimized by hate.
