who is perfect? there is only on who has been
perfect, and that is Christ. of course there are
hypocrite Christians, but if you focus on that,
you've lost the entire point. Everyone sins, and
will sin, there is no denying it. Christians sin,
pagans sin, hindus sin, there is no avoiding it.
People may call themselves Christian, but live
a lifestyle that only glorifies themselves-this is
not a Christian. A Christian is one who is
Christ-like.
One who desires to live as Christ lived. They
recognize they are sinners, and are destined to
hell, but through the blood of Christ are forgiven
and saved. I'm so sorry that you believe what you
believe about Christianity. I had similar
thoughts about it, but God caused me to see things
different. I refuse to be the hypocrite you think
all Christians are. The One who is in me is
greater than he that is in the world. Because of
Jesus Christ I know my salvation is secure. I
don't worry anymore. Can you say the same?
