The Hypocrisy Never Ceases to Amaze Me!

After my rant the other day, I received an email from a certain blog writer or writers.  It went something along the lines of  'words are terrible things'.  They were right.  Words can have an impact that sometimes we are not aware of the damage we might have caused by speaking carelessly.  However, that is not an excuse to not address issues of un-Christ-like behavior.  I am well aware that my blog comes across as antagonistic.  But let me tell YOU, Christian, that for every five Christians I meet, I come across the one Believer who wants nothing more to do with Christians.  It seems God has placed my husband and I in the care of these who have joined the ranks of outcasts because they want nothing more to do with wearing masks, playing the game and acting as if life is all happy and grand.  So we do our best to lead them back to Jesus Christ and share with them His message of peace, mercy and grace, and not the laws and spiritual death of religion. 

Again, when are we going to take off the masks and get real.  I would love to have fellowship with believers who can take the heat.  But the moment I began to mention some things, they disappear. 

But really I am getting off the point of why I came to blog today.  I really do not remember signing up for the newsletter of that particular blog of writers.  But they had an interesting post, so instead of marking it as spam, I have read some of the posts.  So I went back today, because I had posted a comment thanking them for the encouragement.  Their article was a good reminder of the damage words can cause.  What did I find?  I find that my comment was deleted.  Okay, that's their right...it's their blog.  But again, I find it somewhat hypocritical.  What's a matter?  You afraid the black sheep of the family might get black fleece on your white fleece?  I don't believe God is going to allow segregation in heaven. 

So I'll stay in my own little corner of the universe with my Bible and the TRUTH I read from it and not play games by being all nice.  If I have to walk alone until Jesus takes me home, I'll do it,  because HE is worth it.  You can have your nicities, masks and all the games Christians play because they are not worth it.
