My step-father, a great man, is a Christian, MAGA supporting, Trump loving legal immigrant and US citizen. I named my son after him, and my biological father (also a great man, who passed.)
Reality is, just because someone claims to be a Christian, even believing that they are, doesn't make it so. Scripture is clear that many will profess to follow Christ but never put him first in their life.
You will know them by their fruits, not by their words.
If it's everyone that looks at you like that, it syou, not them with the problem.
You sprinkle absolutes like NEVER and ALWAYS which is impossible, therefore a lie, around in your accusation like mozzarella on a pizza.That's the emotional langauge of a child.
If you want answers, read the Bible. I believe the NKJV is an easier thank KJV. ESV and NIV are easy to read too.
I say read because so many people think they know what a Christian or how Christians are supposed to act, even so-called Christians do this. I was guilty of this as well, until I finally opened the book to do my own studying. It was eye opening.
A lot of churches have moved from the Word in favor of appeasing the masses so they can keep their pews, chairs, bean bags, or whatever the church offers for seating filled. The Bible talks about the degradation of the church and warns about it.
I often blame liberals for their nonsense because they do fail to do their own research to get answers to all the circumstances they blame exist everywhere.
You want to get answers and understanding, open a Bible. For me, Ecclesiastes is what changed my life around, having traveled all over the place, made a lot of money, lost money, been with a lot of women, tons of schooling, crazy career ladder climbing, and so on but still felt an unfulfilled desire.
Seriously, turn the other cheek while you get slapped or while your country is invaded by godless heathens? Christians think we weren’t meant to fight ever. Smh. There will be no Christian Voice once America is gone. Free speech is something you he world doesn’t have.
I’m an agnostic (or something...long story), so this is an outside perspective, but it seems a combination of two problems:
First, most Christians in this country are only nominally Christian. They go to church occasionally, celebrate some heavily secular versions of Christian holidays (Christmas, Easter) and generally believe some level of “Jesus = Good, Satan = Bad”...but that’s about the extent of their practice and/or knowledge of Christianity. And they especially ignore anything that might make their life inconvenient or require them to take an unpopular stand.
Second - again, outside perspective - it seems like organized Christianity has caved in to the cultural shift. The current Pope is a socialist who spends more time complaining about the US, capitalism and climate change than anything to do with Jesus. Then there are all the Protestant denominations that are embracing woke ideology, anti-white racism and the LGBTQIIA+MAP nonsense. If the shepherds have wandered so far off, how can one expect the flock to acting ‘Christian’?
There are many, many conservative churches and conservative Christians in the U.S. That's why Trump supporters include a significantly larger percentage of Christians than the Democrats.
Love the sinner, but hate the sin. Christians in the military understand that when they pull the trigger in battle and defend their country.
It's not good for your soul to hate BLM members. But it is just and right to hate what they are doing and demand just consequences.
The left has no deity yet they are praying with all their might that the Trump movement will give up on winning reasonable voters and focus instead on taking vigilante justice in the streets. You may be a genuine Trump supporter who happens to hate Christians, but there are paid shills who make the kind of assertions you just did to derail opposition to the left. They try to get members of an anti-left group to insult the largest constituency of its base.
I am not a pacifist, and I will not blink at using force if I have to defend my family from a terroristic mob, but I don't hate the BLM members. I hate what they are doing and demand justice for their crimes, but it's up to God to judge their souls.
And if some BLM members come to their senses eventually one day, repent, and sincerely come to faith in Christ, we should rejoice. They still should face the legal consequences for their misconduct, but Christ came into the world to save sinners.
Quit acting like a victim. Yeah it’s cucked that these “turn the other cheek” christians won’t call out antifa/blm, but it’s also cucked that you’re pretending that you’re the only legal immigrant on this site and that you get hate for it. There are way more than you’re making out there to be on here, and no one is AfRaId of them.
Not THIS Christian.
I find these losers to be cucks.
My step-father, a great man, is a Christian, MAGA supporting, Trump loving legal immigrant and US citizen. I named my son after him, and my biological father (also a great man, who passed.)
Most Christians act like cucks.
Blue pilled simps of the highest order.
Call them out on it.
Many have genuine good intentions and don't even realise it.
But many have the chance to be changed and made to realise that what they are doing is in fact the opposite of Christian call to love.
Reality is, just because someone claims to be a Christian, even believing that they are, doesn't make it so. Scripture is clear that many will profess to follow Christ but never put him first in their life.
You will know them by their fruits, not by their words.
Couple things to unpack here.
If it's everyone that looks at you like that, it syou, not them with the problem.
You sprinkle absolutes like NEVER and ALWAYS which is impossible, therefore a lie, around in your accusation like mozzarella on a pizza.That's the emotional langauge of a child.
Did you ask for and verify their Official Real So-Called Christian© ID for each and every one that you merely walked near? Or did you just decide they were to fit your internal fucked up narrative?
You didn't, they aren't, and they don't. Sort yourself out.
Judging by his muh victimhood posts, I believe this guy is an alt lefty masquerading as a Trump supporter
Well stated.

You have to open the Book.
There is nothing new under the sun but there is new life under The Son.
The Word was with God and the Word was God.
Putting as much Word inside your head as you can so that you might not sin against God is great Biblical advice!

To get out of the responsibility of having to care for a neighbor.

If you lump all Christians into one group and then judge us by our worst you are the one that's in the wrong.
Why are you sowing dissent on the side of righteousness?
