Reflection #5

I was a little bit surprised in this time of Theodosius' reign that christian themselves persecuted the pagans. Because as I've knew that only christian was being persecuted by other religion. But through the life of Theodosius my mind was being opened that, that could really be happened even before, during ancient times.
As a Christian, I am trying to live with confidence knowing that I have this Christ in me. Knowing and trying to be aware of every day living that persecution as Christian would really be happen. But because of this emperor my mind was being widen that Christian also could persecute the pagans even at this time. And the more I am being aware of how I live because I might act or live as a persecutor to other people.

Being sensitive the more to others as minister is what really matters the most in me. Knowing that I am an agent of transformation I must live just like a spy in each of the lives of those who are still lost and not to live as a persecutor. Because as what I've said that I thought before only Christians are being persecuted but in the other hand Christians also could be a persecutor in the eyes of other people if Christian themselves are not sensitive enough the way they live.
