Are Christians missing it?

I really don’t consider myself to be an exceptionally wise man, but I think that as Christians there is one major thing that we miss the mark on. I’d like to start by telling everyone that this is simply an opinion and is not meant to offend anyone, but if by posting this, if I can help one person, my job will have been done. Let me start off by asking a simple question, why do you think that Christians are loosing so much credibility in the world, no, let’s narrow it down a bit, in the USA today? Think about it before reading on…

In today’s society we deal with a lot of moral issues, which should not be issues at all. We deal with abortion, homosexuality, homicide, suicide, burglaries, robberies, drugs, drinking, I cold go on and on. So, what’s my point? Why, as Christians, are we taking on issues? “What, how can you ask that?” you say. It’s real simple, as Christians we are to do what the bible say’s right? And wasn’t Christ our example? Let’s examine this question more in depth, and see what the Bible says, and what Christ says about this.

First, what is our job as Christians? ”And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.” Mark 16:15 . So our job is clear, we are to preach the gospel, spread the word. Throughout the Bible, I don’t recall any point where Jesus took on a society issue, the only time he may have done this, is when He drove out the merchants from the church. Well, buying and selling in the Church was clearly a violation of everything Holy, and Jesus was certainly justified in taking care of that. But when did he, picket the Roman Empire for over taxing? When did he stand in judgment of prostitution? When did He condemn a thief? In fact, didn’t Christ say, “He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.” John 8:7

Look, I am as frustrated by this world as any Christian would be, but, we are not going to change the world, in fact, the Bible say’s that it is going to get WORSE. So, what do we do then, bury our heads in the sand? Of course not, we live in a land where we are free to express our opinions through the polls, voting is our voice. And, we can certainly voice our opinions through media and blogs, as I am doing right now. But, when we picket, scream out, and other things done by certain church’s down south, that will remain nameless. We make ourselves out to be hypocritical, haters, and everything contrary to what Christ stood for.

Listen, the world is going to “go to Hell in a hand basket”, it’s up to us to pull as many people as we can out of that basket. So to sum up my little rant, let’s stop picketing, and start witnessing. Don’t be friends with the world, be friends with the sinner, hey, you never know, they may accept Christ as Lord, turn their life around, and you know what that will do? Make the world a better place. Huh, looks like Christ’s way, might just work.

Keep Moving Forward…

Pull Em Up!


The pants half way down fad, in my opinion, is pretty much over. This is mostly a fad embraced by young males that listen to Hip Hop, Rap music, the fad has run its course and I believe with continuing education to those who do this, the fad will go away within the next year. So, those of you who still do this, let me educate you on where it came from.

Lee D. Baker, Dean of Academic Affairs at Duke University, states that it is widely believed that sagging was adopted from the United States prison system where belts are prohibited. Belts are sometimes prohibited to avoid suicide by hanging oneself, or to avoid being used as a weapon in fights. The style was later popularized by hip-hop artists in the 1990s.

One Wiki Answers reader say’s…

I was just told by an officer last night that it came from inmates a long time ago. if you wore your pants right, it was you were not available, if you wore it down below their butt it was they are available. I guess people wanted to pretend they were in prison or when they got out of prison they kept doing it and others copied.
So to all of you men who wear your pants around your butt/below your butt, are you saying your available to other guys?

It would seem as if this fad is practiced by folks who just want to be protesters of our legal system, or just want to be on the other side of the law. Just a word to the wise of the latter, you don’t want to be in jail or prison, not a pleasant place, and if you do wind up there, pull them up, maybe you’ll be left alone. As far as the fad is concerned, it seems like most of the people polled, from my research, think the fad is stupid, uncultured, and people practicing it look ridiculous, especially when you run. So, pull em up guy’s, you look goofy, and the world is laughing at you, not with you!
