These walls. Built by man. In response to the shame and rejection we feel.
Were built to redeem us, but keep us captive to doctrine instead.
Protect us from evil but leave the rest of the world outside, dying alone.
Unite us, but divide from showing love to our neighbor.
Teach forgiveness, as we judge the world.
Are dangerous in the safety of man's interpretations.
What if the walls were torn down? Would we still meet? Would we still believe? If there were no divisions. Where everyone is invited into the family.
One big family reunion.
Perhaps in heaven one day.
