As a Christian, we are supposed to win the lost souls by spreading the gospels to the ones who haven’t heard, oppose it or are against the word of God and His existence!!!
But sadly, I see many of us act quite contradictory to it. We try to avoid and immediately misjudge the ones who say “I don’t believe in God or his existence” and term their understanding as illogical and brand them as atheist or anti Christ instead of teaching them or comforting them by showing them the right path! Why?
As a human being all our tastes and experiences differ and varies, we should not expect others too must be exactly the way we are!
As a Christian, we never follow or behave the way we are taught in the Bible!!! We consider those who are not a Christian like us to be a pagan, rationally imbalanced, or just look down upon them never realizing ourselves that we are also spiritually imperfect. We all fall short in the sight of God every day every time!
This selfish and ignorant nature of us make others to call us as “Hypocrites” and I don’t blame them branding us as “hypocrites” because we act and live quite opposite to the teachings of the Bible and the expected Christian way of life!
Christians are expected to show mercy, love and sympathy to those who haven’t still heard about the love of “Jesus” but we try to ignore them with the notion “just let them be” !
Do you think you are doing justice to non believers as a Christian??? Do you think you are already a certified “saved believer” from God??? I don’t think so, God from His heavenly abode is judging us who is who and what is what. we should not act over smart just because we are a Christian. Because just the way we consider Christianity to be spiritually superior so are other denominations too consider themselves to be superior and holier!!!! Never say “what do they know about Biblical scriptures and ignore them
As far as spiritual life is concerned, I as a nominal Christian will say all religion and respective beliefs and faiths are equally sacred and
important therefore, we are not supposed to despise others faith. But if we think we are spiritually very much on the right “tract” we must try our best to streamline them too with what we think is absolutely right with our own experiences and tastes.
Simply Ignoring or laughing at others faith as a good Christian is absolutely wrong!
I have personally experienced/faced many Christians trying to act superior over others faiths just because he is a Christian. Ask me who are they and I will gladly share my experiences, not to malign their good images but educate/correct them the way I am expected to do so as a Christian.
God bless
