Hey Folks,
First off I would like to say I am a christian.. But I am not here to preach.. But instead.. I am here to apologize...
You may be wondering why I would like to apologize..
I would like to apologize because I know there are some unbelievers out there, that have met Believers---and have gotten a bad first impression..
I guess in other words.. To put it bluntly.. There are christians out there in this world who think they are better then unbelievers simply because THEY BELIEVE..
I am here to stand up as a christian and Say, I am sorry.. Not because I am one of those who think they are better, but because "Thinking we are better" is what draws people away--not closer.
If you think about it.. Christians and non believers... Are exactly alike.. To shed some light on the subject.. 90 percent of americans.... Lie on a daily basis..
90 percent.. As a Christian I can tell you that, the whole 90 percent, isnt just Unbelievers... Its Believers as well...Not only that.. But Christians are just as likely to divorce as non believers...
You must be wondering why I am saying this--and not defending my Brothers in Sisters in the Lord...I am not downgrading or defending.. I am just simply bringing everybody-- Believers and Non Believers down to the same level..
Looking eye to eye for a change, instead of seeming like one is better then the other...
If you look at it through God's Eyes... Christian or not... Nobody is better then another.. Just because we believe, doesnt make us better then the person standing next to us who does not believe.. God's Love is unconditional for both..
Some Christians think that since they believe and are saved by Jesus Christ that their lives and the way they live are better then the next... Well Like i said.. God see's us all as equal.. No greater, No less..
And I am just sorry that some unbelievers have come across Believers that were not "Text book" Christians...
To close this up.. Christians are just humans like everyone else.. We fall short.. We Sin.. We Lie....We do what everyone else does.. Although some may not admit to that fact... Becoming a Christian doesnt mean "We are perfect"--Although some may think that-- It's suppose to mean that we understand how much we need Jesus-- Why-- Because of how short we fall from Him.. How we say one thing " I am a christian" and turn around and do the opposite..
Just Know that I am sorry for the fact that there are Christians out there who think they are better then the rest.. Because that is not the case.. I am not disappointed that I am Christian--not at all.
I am just speaking the truth.. That in all reality.. We are no different from eachother.. And only by the Grace and Love of Jesus Christ.. Can we all be saved together...
Thank you for reading.. Opinions are all welcome!
God Bless
