       Sadly, people in our world most often operate the other way, whether it be people at church or unbelievers we are alongside. That is, people often treat us based on what we have accomplished or what we are currently accomplishing. Favoritism is shown to those we feel deserve our attention. Or, on the other side of the coin, people may not accept us unless we do things their way—follow their way or brand of Christianity, and how they think the Christian life should be lived, or how they think good works for God should be accomplished. And if we don’t do things a certain way, these people will not accept our work. They may not accept us if we don’t follow their rules, live by their standard. Slandering may occur if they feel others are doing wrong when in fact they are not. Criticism can become a big problem. Thankfully, though, our acceptance by God is not based on what we do or what we don’t do.
