Credibility

Christians seemed to have lost credibility. They seem to be doing a lot of shouting. We desperately need to look again at the character and words of Jesus. People seem to like Jesus but not Christians. What has gone wrong. Perhaps we try to fit Jesus into our world view, instead of fitting in with his view. My personal mission is to introduce Jesus through his words, works and stories. People seem to be interested. We seem to think we need to fight Jesus’ corner but what is written about Jesus can stand on it’s own. At the end of the day people either accept Jesus or not. People with money seem not to care much as they have a life, hmmm…. Heaven on earth, which seems to give them what they think they need. That is why Jesus went to poor people, broken people,struggling people, for they were searching for answers. We have so many opinions based on our own views and position , we loose sight of what is written in the Bible. We hurt people by being hard and not showing love. We have a crazy idea that God is on our side because we are Christians. There is a verse that says something like ‘You did all these things in the name of God, but I never knew you!’ We must evaluate this as we maybe hindering the work of God, not progressing it. If you tell a man or woman they are wrong, will we win them for Jesus? In more cases that not, ‘no’ They need love and understanding. We need to be their friends.
