Day 43 of 365: Christian?

 

It would appear I snoozed a lot of people on Facebook 31 days ago. Sometimes I am not sure what is worst. Christians using scripture WAY out of context or Christians that keep blasting the church or those that have no religious affiliation simply firing off ignorant comments about current events. Simply wanting to spread hate under the moniker of "trying to make a difference." 

Fact of the matter is that those who are not Christians and act out, I have way more of a tolerance for them than I do for the ones that call themselves Christians and are constantly posting toxic stuff. It’s pretty easy…Jesus said “By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” If a Christian is posting a lot of hate….plain and simple….they are not a Christian. 

We all have our flaws but when you are constantly being a hateful person, you are the furthest thing away from Christ. Don’t believe me? What about where Jesus said “By their fruit you will recognize them.” Plain and simple…don’t see fruit…you can’t possibly be a Christian. For a Christian to steam roll those who do not think like them (applies to politics) are like someone who runs a person over only to ask if they can help them up. 

I am convinced that if you want to be a witness for Christ these days then be nice. That’s it…that’s all there is to it. If you want to keep tarnishing the title of Christian then keep on keeping on.
