- In any True/False question, you know it's false when you see words like ALL or NEVER.
- Christians do not have a monopoly on hypocrisy. Being a hypocrite is nice and evenly spread across humanity, regardless if one is a Christian or not. It's a human flaw, not a Christian thing.
Next time someone says, "I don't believe in God" or "I don't believe in Jesus", ask "Who do you think God is?" Upon explanation of who or what they THINK He is, agree with them that you don't believe in the God they just explained either.
Bottom line, people who don't believe in God have the wrong "god" in mind. They simply don't understand, otherwise they would run after Him at a sprint. More than likely, their mind has been branded with a view of God or Jesus from a less than stellar experience with some flawed people (who may or may not be actual Christians, but perhaps claim to be), through an upbringing where they were presented with a false impression of Christianity and God, or from indoctrination into an ideology that is simply false.
Here's a pop quiz for the non-believer reading this:
- Christians are bigots who hate [FILL IN THE BLANK (e.g. homosexuals, muslims ...]. T/F
- Christians and Republicans ... same thing. T/F
- Churches just want your money. T/F
- Christians believe what they believe with a blind faith. T/F
- There is more evidence for the theory of evolution than for the claims of Christ's deity. T/F
- Islam, Hinduism, Christianity, etc. ... all pretty much the same. T/F
If you answered T (True) to any of these, you have it wrong. I recommend you look deeper than sound bites and broad generalizations, and seek the actual truth. You will be surprised what you'll find and be forever thankful for humbling yourself long enough to seek Him.
God bless you and - regardless of your current position - I love you and so does God (only infinitely greater than I ever could).
A. God is good.
B. God is love.
C. God is just.
D. All of the above.
(Hint: It's D.)
