Ziggy Marley Quotes

I am a Christian and I don't want there to be any confusion about what I believe or who I am. I don't believe gay people are going to hell. I believe that judgment is left to the one upstairs and I believe Jesus is all about love. If I can live my life even just a smidgen the way God made his son for us as an example, I'm happy. I do not judge other people for what they believe, but for me, this is what works.

To love someone is to strive to accept that person exactly the way he or she is, right here and now.

I am a Christian person, and I do love the Lord, and I feel no matter who you are, what you believe, how you live your life, it's not my place to judge. I don't have that power. I don't want that power. It's my place to love and to show God's love to other people, even if they don't live a life like I live.

In my personal and spiritual life, I reject that. I don't believe in that. I'm always trying to get my mind into a less judgmental place, making less rigid judgments about things like "perverse" versus "pure." But in terms of prose, those sorts of oppositions seem to work.

Indulgence is lovely in the sinless; toleration, adorable in the pious and believing heart.

Judge not; speak hardly at all; love and act.

My religion is, to live through Love.

I have told everybody that what we are doing is for the love of God and works of love are always to accept and respect others.

I do what I believe the Lord did, and that is walk in love with all mankind, which I don't see a lot of Christians doing. Christians can be so judgmental, that it can turn off people who are considering converting. It makes me a little embarrassed, to tell you the truth, when I hear Christians criticizing others. I have to fight against being discouraged, because I don't want to be connected with people who are so intolerant of much of mankind like that. God loves us all. He really does. And I want to walk in love with people.

I don't judge. I'm not God. We're supposed to be less judgmental and accept and be kind and love one another.

I appreciate the idea of allowing people to have their own private walk with God. To me, God is about love, not condemnation.

I think that you love who you love, and there are people who you love that people aren't going to understand why, and that sort of doesn't really matter.

I used to love people for what they could be. I thought love was how hard you tried and how much you sacrificed and suffered. That is not love. Acceptance is.

Love is the ability and willingness to allow those that you care for to be what they choose for themselves without any insistence that they satisfy you.

The new spirituality will step away from dogma, will step away from 'We're right and you're wrong.'

If you like it, let it be, and if you don't please do the same.

I am not a conventionally religious man, but in the wilderness I have come closest to finding myself and knowing the universe and accepting God - by which I mean accepting all that I don't know.

Acceptance is not love. You love a person because he or she has lovable traits, but you accept everybody just because they're alive and human.

People in love don't see gender, colour or religion. Or age. It's about the other person, the one that you love and who loves you. You don't think of them in terms of a label. You just go with your heart.

I'm still Christian. I was not raised in a Christian church to hate people. I was taught to love people and accept people. I know what I believe.

I'm a Christian, and I'm not judgmental towards anyone. I think that's really important.

Where love is, there God is also.

Falling in love with God is the most important thing a person can do.

This life journey has led me to love mystery and not feel the need to change it or make it un-mysterious. This has put me at odds with many other believers I know who seem to need explanations for everything.
