What's with tags?

I put on my shirt and I have a tag that just bugs the living daylights out of me. I try to pull the tag off but if I do, there's a good chance that I will rip my shirt and make it an embarrassing shirt to wear. Sometimes they put tags or labels right on the front, like those little alligators. Drives me nuts!

There's tags on pillows and those things are like a foot long. They stick out from the pillow case and will flap around in my face when I try to sleep. Same thing on a mattress. It's like they dare you to yank that tag off and just to make it more exciting they stamp

"DO NOT REMOVE UNDER PENALTY OF LAW!"

Muhahaha! Rippp!!!!

Even the cushions on my couch have tags, every single cushion has it's own tag. Inside the hip on my pants they put a tag. Just low enough it rubs the side of my leg raw. Seriously what's the deal with tags? They should be made to dissolve in water the first time you wash them. Yes, even the stupid little alligator must go.

Who really likes any tag or label on the clothes they wear?

Over in the black market trade, tags and labels are very important. It's a sign of authenticity, the real deal. You can go to a smaller country have them make some high quality reproductions really cheap and sell them for 500% profit easy.

We all have our own labels.
Male
White
Straight
American
Christian
Protestant
Assembly of God
Wash Warm on Gentle Cycle
Towel Dry


Then we use the labels to keep us together. God forbid we mix our qualities and chance ruining the entire load. But how are these labels going to strengthen the body of Christ here on Earth if we stay seperated?

Ok let's start trimming this label down so we can make a bigger more efficient load. We can easily remove, Male and White, pretty easy these days with equality and racism coming to an end.

We have to over come our fears and put aside our prejudice of gays. When you first witness to a homosexual you have to look beyond that. First things first you have to be able to deliver the seed. Let the seed grow in them and things will change in their lives. It's not our job to condemn them but to save them.

John 3:17 (New International Version)

For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.



Protestant and Assembly of God is just a tiny part of the Church of Jesus Christ. We have to look over the walls we build between our churches and bring ourselves together.

Our nationality can be a problem. We've got our fingers in a lot of peoples diner plates right now. But you can overcome your own prejudice and not hold individuals responsible for their entire nation. I can't look at a Russian person with the distrust our governments have.

We have to know that Wash warm on Gentle cycle is out the window. It's not a easy task but the joy of doing God's work will overcome anything the world sets against us. Spit on twenty times but saved one soul. Look at what Jesus did for us. Look how he took the worst punishment ever given to any human that was willfully received. Then on top of that, Jesus asked God to forgive them.

So we are left with....

Christian
All temperature safe
Mix with all others

God Bless!
