Forgiving the Police

Forgiving the Police

False and unjust arrest can happen to anyone, including those with clean records. Let us never forget that Jesus Christ was subjected to false and unjust arrest. * Evidence of false arrests is everywhere on YouTube. But here on GodTube, we must ask ourselves this question: How can we bring our Christian values into that difficult situation? * One woman may have found the answer: Forgiveness. * Faced with the false and unjust arrest of her beloved husband, this Christian woman (an animal lover, as we see in the video) chose to forgive the local sheriff. But out of concern that false arrest could happen to others in her community, she also reported the arrest to her fellow citizens, to local voters, and to higher law enforcement agencies as a violation of her husband's rights as an American. * Unfortunately, the sheriff was just re-elected. "I'm praying for him," she says. * Let's show our support for this family by sharing this video with our friends, neighbors, family members, and congregations. It's an important reminder that even if we are wronged--and even if our family is publicly humiliated--we still have the power to do something positive by remembering Jesus' example of forgiveness. * Let's make this video go viral to show the world how Christians and GodTube respond to unlawful arrest!
