Even in the Bible it is at times more than difficult to distinguish the good guys from the bad. If differentiated by behavior, at times, there is no difference at all between God’s people and others. On more than one occasion, God has His people killing everyone in sight to include women, children and their animals.
Thus, a good guy is someone on your side and a bad guy are those opposing. It’s as simple as that.
Yet, all of us assume a posture that we are in fact, the good guys.
Jesus tells us differently. He explains that sin separates us from the Father and that we must repent, change and follow Him. I’m not going to delve into the discussion if this repentance is a necessary element for conversion, but at least delineates good guys from the bad. Conversion never results in violence, but in LOVE. I believe we can all agree on that.
To that extent, all who convert over to Jesus with His born again experience are all—GOOD GUYS. There is no way around it for all are given the gifts of the spirit which are GOOD.
The way I look at it, I much rather be a good guy than bad. In fact, I don’t know anyone who likes a bad guy. We know that even God doesn’t like bad guys which is why he desires we believe and follow Him.
As simplistic as this message may come across, the truth of its implications are facts that can easily be witnessed and verified. Our message in which we should all be unified is that Jesus is indeed the one and only author of the Good Guys for all the other good guys in the world.
