I couldn't resist...
I really couldn't resist. :) I saw these colorbars EVERYWHERE, so I made my own rendition of one... I introduce...


             
God is Love.


Gold | God
His love for you is more precious than pure gold. "For God so loved the world that He gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not parish but have eternal life." - John 3:16
Black| Sin
Selfish and self-will separates you from God. "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." - Romans 3:23
Red | Blood
Jesus Christ died on the cross for your sins and the world. "Christ died for our sins... he was buried...he was raised on the third day." - 1 Corinthians 15:3-4
White | Forgiveness
You are forgiven when you confess your sins, repent and accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. "Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord." - Acts 3:19
Clear | Purity
You are cleansed from sin and given the gift of eternal life when you accept Jesus Christ. "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness." - 1 John 1:19
Green | Growth
Through prayer, reading the Bible, and fellowship, you will have spiritual growth. "Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." - 2 Peter 3:18
Blue | Holy Spirit
Through His Spirit, God will help you live a good life. "Those who obey His commands live in Him, and He in them. And this is how we know that He lives in us: We know it by the Spirit He gave us." - 1 John 3:24

boop - I've seen this in a few communities and journals around. Great idea!

I remember making beaded bracelets with these colors in Bible school when I was little so we had a reminder on our arms all the time about why God is so amazing.

Heylo! :) Good to see that this was getting circulated around. NEway, I was reading some stuff that non-christians and christians were saying to each other in all these marriage/colorbar related threads. Seems to be a lot of hating. I saw (some) awful posts that would turn off the non-christian even more by saying stuff like... "God will forgive your sins..." Even if it's true, we need to be wiser with what we say to others. We're representing God and His people... I've got some friends that just HATED christians because of the "Holier than Thou" attitude. We know God, and we know of His grace. Others may not... Philippians 2:3 says "Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves."
Jesus was one to be there for the ones who hated Him, spat on Him, hung Him on the cross, yet He still had this attitude of love... We must try to be like Him. What makes us different from non-believers if we hate on our enemies like they do? God is LOVE...

hate the sin, not the sinner... we all sin, some of us just know where to go when we wanna run from it and get it off our backs... :) (so what are we gonna do about it?) ;) JESUS IS ALIVE!

Aww. That's so sweet. When I was little, my youth group made bracelets with those colors of beads, and the leaders told us what each of them meant. Ah, the nostalgia.

Thank you for being strong in your faith, and wanting to show it off, without putting down other people. (I'm referring to those other things that say "God is Love", but are clearly gay-hating.)

Seeya!

it's interesting that your "god is love" colorbar stems from an idea that orginally supported gay marriage. all the christians that i am familiar with do not hesitate to tell my (and their) gay friends that they are all going to burn in hell.

i don't see it as a very christian act to not love and accept someone just because of who they choose to love.

therefore, while i respect your views and the fact that you hold strongly to them, i myself cannot support christianity because it does not support unbiased acceptance of other members of the human race. i think it is wrong to accuse homosexuals of some of the things they've been accused of (being rapists, pedophiles, and ridden with sexually transmitted diseases) when this is often untrue. i think christians should stop being so self-righteous and try to be more accepting.

every christian who condemns gay people because of their sexual orientation is a hypocrite, because who hasn't worked on a sunday? who hasn't eaten meat on a friday? who hasn't taken the lord's name in vain, coveted someone else's goods, or disrespected their father a time or two? we can no longer literally adhere to the bible simply because our society has developed to be more complicated and less strict in its ideas of morality. so why not just let it go and let people live as they choose?

that is all. thank you for reading.

hello hello! (i tried to IM you earlier, but you weren't online...) yeah... you're right, it originally DID come from the marriage is love colorbar. (but there's tons of others who make their own version of a colorbar too... no one's really picking on them though). there were other colorbars that were outright opposing it. i wasn't saying anything at all about marriage or whatnot though. i was trying to put the focus somewhere off that topic. people are failing to realize that this was REALLY just about saying "God is Love." i looked that up in google, and that phrase led me to some same-sex oriented christian churches saying that "God is Love." if you scroll up, i said that i do believe gays can go to heaven. i have nothing against gay people... don't automatically assume all christians are unaccepting of people because of their sexual orientation. like i said, people aren't perfect. christians aren't perfect. i can be first to say that i've done stuff that God doesn't approve of. God loves us all in spite of our incapabilities of being imperfect. and christians who run around thinking that they're better than everyone else need to get humbled, i know they're out there... but not all people who call themselves christians are like that. let's not generalize. we all come from different backgrounds and upbringings... i appreciate you leaving a comment though. thanks.
