Church: Marble City United Methodist Church (2554 Sutherland Avenue; Knoxville, TN 37921)
Sign: “We were called to be witnesses, not lawyers or judges.”
Commentary: This sign both reminds its readers of Jesus’ command not to judge (Matthew 7:1; Luke 6:37) and also his final mandate to be his witnesses to all of the earth. Just before ascending, Jesus’ final words to his followers were:
“but you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth.” (Acts 1:8, NASB)
