by human ignorance, bigotry, and narrow minded intolerance.

patient with their frailties but I am also ruthless with sin and intolerant of
iniquity. (Jesus)

fathers." (Jesus referring to the destruction of Jerusalem, 70 AD)
UB ppr. 176.1 Even so do you who knowingly reject the council of God appear
outwardly to men as holy and righteous, but inwardly your hearts are filled
with hypocrisy and iniquity.
Do we have the wisdom to recognize those around us who may fill such a
description? Who are they? What are they doing? Outward appearances can be
deceiving.
We are taught to be tolerant of everything and everyone. Do we unwittingly
tolerate and encourage evil, sin, and iniquity? The Father doesn't. Neither did
Jesus of Nazareth.
UB ppr. 148.5 The penalties of sin are inevitable; the destroying consequences
of iniquity are inexorable.

comes.
Humankind is a family. The family suffers the sin of the individual and
vice-a-versa.

UB ppr. 141.3 And when he (Jesus) said, "Resist not evil," he later
explained that he did not mean to condone sin or counsel fraternity with
iniquity.
And yet we do.

the divine law, the Father's Will.
The Father's Will is the Father's Way. The Way of truth, beauty, goodness, and
love.
