Let's Stop Pretending and Let's Start Friending
Struggling with Sin
"For we know that the Law is spiritual, but I am of flesh, sold into bondage to sin. For what I am doing, I do not understand; for I am not practicing what I would like to do, but I am doing the very thing I hate." Romans 7:14&15
*Come on Christians ever been there? Let's not lie to ourselves and to others. We are all liars, thieves, adulterers, gluttons, have coveted, and just all around sinners! Jesus Christ said that if you've looked at someone in lust you've already committed aldutry. The Bible says that if you've wished that something was yours so much that you would do anything to get it you've committed a sin. If you've done something that maybe you didn't think was wrong, but your brother or sister did and you did it in their presence you've sinned. And how about this one, if you over indulge in something such as food or drink you've sinned. Just face it, we are all sinners saved by grace.
But, see the problem is we have Super Christians who don't sin. That tell the world that they do not sin and they preach to the world not to sin. The second problem is this, those who they are speaking to know that those who are speaking are liars. They see them day in and day out. Yet, those same "perfect Christians" who look down on people, who may be overweight, refuse to help others (with a fat wallet), or just outright rude aren't real with people and they don't give them the real answer; Jesus Christ!
I'm gonna be quite honest. I tell people right up front that I am who I am and the only truth that I can speak is the Truth of Christ. I also tell em I'm not the picture perfect Christian so, if that is what your looking for you might want to go to one of the First Church of Something's. But, I always tell em if they want to hear a powerful testimony and a powerful Word I'll do my best...
