“I need you to remember that God is still working on you right now,” Minor said. “Those secret sins you’ve got that you’re working on—God’s working on them in you right now. And you cannot save the world if you hate the world.”

Minor said, “If you look at people and you hate them because they don’t believe like you, they don’t think like you, then I don’t know how you can be an effective minister to win them to God. And that’s the end result.”

“The devil wants us divided. Even our brothers and sisters who haven’t made it into the flock yet—he wants us to look at them and say they need to be destroyed,” Minor explained. “But man, through Christ—Christ died so that we can all have life. And my goal is to win. I’m trying to win my brother.”
