Topic: The Club House / Concerned Christians for Inmates

If only we could see through a person to the soul then maybe we as private citizens and corrections officers would not be duped and made to look like fools by inmates that have learned to lie and cheat from childhood. Unfortunately most of the inmates will never be trusted by corrections officers because they have formed habits from their childhood that may never be put to death until the convicts are in their graves. Habits are formed in peoples lives that take many years to put to death in our bodies, even after we have come to accept Christ as our personal Savior. Even as Christ loving people we still sin and it is better to error on the side of precaution and keep our jobs than to be duped and made to look like fools.
I have personally experienced a fellow Christian correction officer give an inmate a pen while on an outside hospital trip so that the inmate could (write down a scripture from the bible that he was reading). That inmate actually was writing to the nurse on staff that evening, that had taken care of him. He then placed his love note to her, in her uniform pocket, while she was taking his vitals, without the officers noticing. The nurse happened to be a personal friend of mine and later informed me of the situation. Morale of the story. (NEVER TRUST AN INMATE) ALWAYS BE SAFE WITH INMATES AND LET GOD BE GOD!
