until you are part of something serious it all speculation.
lets take it to the lowest level possible... What would Jesus do for the homeless? If you are indeed separate from the world, what are you doing when you pass by a homeless person?
now lets say that person you 'assume' is homeless is indeed not homeless. Yet you in your mind think are so noble for helping a 'homeless' person.
You forgot Humility. To have Humility is to see that the homeless person could be a deceiver and it is smoke to a larger problem going on that you are also part of.
many people who are homeless are really just working and receiving tax free money from the so called 'Christians' and that is not an assumption. :)
The Scripture that I quoted was kjv Galatians 5:22, 23 about the fruits of the Spirit. Meekness means humility and humbleness. Also to be separate from the world is found in 2 Corinthians 6:17 "Come out from among them and be ye separate sayeth the Lord and touch not the unclean thing". We know we live in this world and are touched by everything in it, but we are called of God to not participate in worldly behavior that would bring disgrace to the Lord. I have helped people on the street by giving food and water. That doesn't make me a part of their deception if they are asking for help without a true need. If I have helped with the right heart attitude and not expecting praise or anything in return, then that is what the Lord has asked of me. Yes I know Christian means Christlike. My point was that too many people are saying they are Christians and have no idea what being Christlike truly is. I really was in agreement with your post, just adding comment. I think you misunderstood that. Carry on and God bless.
it is all good. part of life is to have flexibility and discernment. With humans there is nobody that compares to Christ. Everyone is biased. Being able to criticize oneself is the most important.
Saul was of the right heart and attitude when he martyred Stephen as Stephen was being martyred he knew it too.
That is what the reality is. We can have the right heart and attitude in doing something that we deem Christlike, but is it?
To one is Sin that another it is not Sin to them. Just as if I am a Jew and I eat pork, am I a Jew to another Jew? The true liberal is the true Christian. We might understand that we are nothing more than a worm to God but we attempt to have a good outlook and when needed we can still rebuke and have a 1st and 2nd Amendment in the USA.
The gushy weak Christians might believe they are of the right attitude because they lick the boots of the rainbow fags but in reality they are essentially a stumbling stone to the up and coming Christians that Jesus wants us to be. :)
That last paragraph is so true. And that's where being separated from the world's philosophy comes in. I don't think they were waving the rainbow flag in Sodom and Gomorrah, but there was Lot not taking a stand against that filthy lifestyle. And when he tried to take his family and leave, to his sons in law he seemed as one that mocked. They didn't believe him, and he was a stumbling block to his children. Sin will take you farther than you want to go, and cost you more than you want to pay.
Those who believe in Christ will be capable of much stuff in all walks of life. Not all have the same gifts or attributes. Throughout the history of man, Christians eventually came to a place where a Christian can have a foundation in life. The USA, now they want to mock the USA citizens that only a racist can have such a constitution.
Christians read about how the 12 Apostles were all martyred and that was then. That was an essential part of human history. The war in today's history is to once again be able to openly crucify Christians under the disguise of being evil people. IF they do this in the USA the whole world will fall.
maybe I am wrong. I do not ever wish to have the strength of those Christians from the past. I would be only considered a little warning to the future that is essentially a destiny of mankind. It will happen very fast in the USA once the Constitution is openly torn and in some sense it already is.
Murder is defined incorrectly by those who are ignorant. In the USA a Christian has the right to protect his family and even if they take that away it is not Murder to defend. Those who go against the Christians of the USA are only murdering themselves. It is very important for them to remove the 1st Amendment as fast as possible. Not the 2nd. The 1st is the key. In England this was the first that was removed too. Their version of it. Once words are crimes then the order followers will flourish in the daytime.
one of the flaws in the weak Christians logic in todays USA is they openly claim a police officer has the right to kill another but then they are also claiming that officer has no soul. The weak Christians in large part in the USA are spoiled brats.
Christian is saying 'Christ-like' .
