Out of curiosity, I recently did a search on Google just to see what people want to know most about Christians. What I found left me with mixed emotions of sadness, shock and well… a realisation that it might just be the truth.
All I typed in was: “Why are Christians so…” and the top three search results were:
- Why are Christians so JUDGEMENTAL?
- Why are Christians so HYPOCRITICAL?
- AND Why are Christians so MEAN?
If we should do some introspection, I wonder how many of us would fall into one if not more of these characteristics that others see. It’s so easy as human beings to sometimes forget where we come from and the process it took for us to become born again. Isn’t it easy to judge others because we feel so self-righteous but yet forget to sweep around our own front door. We often forget to remove the balk from our own eyes yet want to concentrate on the speck of dust in our neighbour’s eyes.
When Jesus spoke to words:
I don’t think He meant to judge, have double standards or to be plain and simply mean to others. He meant LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOUR, there is no two ways about it. Love is love there is no middle and that is the bottom line.
How great it would be if we typed into Google’s search bar: “Why are Christians so…” and what would pop up is “LOVING”, “CARING”, “CHRIST LIKE”
I LAY THIS CHALLENGE BEFORE ALL READING THIS BLOG AND EVEN MYSELF,LET’S BE THE CHANGE THIS EVIL WORLD NEEDS TODAY…….
