FAKE

So I have real hard time believing someone is a Christian when they only seem like it when we @ church... I know this post seems very legalistic but come on... Its so easy to say the right words & walk the right way... Its hard for me to believe that someone is truly a Christian when the music they listen to is dirty, the words coming out of their mouth are dirty, and they are drinking @ the bar or with intent to get drunk... Now I'm not condemning bc I'm also not perfect I just want Christians to wake up! We are called to be an example! How does it look to others? It says in the bible that you will be known to be a follower of Christ by the fruit you bare... Ref. Matthew 7:15-20; John 15:8; Galatians 5:21-23... Now don't go using the whole sanctification thing on me... I get it! I know that we are not perfect but that our salvation is continually being worked out... But that is not an excuse! We are called to be the light of the world (ref. Matthew 5:13-15)! We are co-heirs with Christ (Romans 8) & Philippians 4:13 says "I can do everything through him who gives me strength." & also that we can have Faith to move mountains (1 Cor 13:2)! This should get us so excited! Instead I see luke warm & lazy Christians... I'm not saying I'm perfect by any means... I'm so far off! If we let God catch us on fire for the Gospel everything would change! Instead of others running from the church they would be running to it t get what we have! DC Talk said:
"The Single Greatest Cause Of Atheism In The World Today Is Christians Who Acknowledge Jesus With Their Lips, Then Walk Out The Door And Deny HIM By Their Lifestyle. This Is What An Unbelieving World Simply Finds Unbelievable."
This is sad we serve the one who Created EVERYTHING! Who came & lived a sinless life and was crucified on our behalf & rose again! Let's act like it!
