Recently, the “He Gets Us” producers aired a Jesus Christ commercial during the Super Bowl where we have a montage of different people washing the feet of others. At the end, the slogan is, “Jesus Didn’t Teach Hate.”
Sounds like a positive message, doesn’t it. What’s wrong with that? I’ve even talked to some Christians who were happy with the Ad, saying, “I’m just glad they’re talking about Jesus during the Super Bowl. It’s a good start.”
Alright…last one. This is part four of the reasons why we need to abolish this fear of being called “judgemental” in 2024. Because all it’s doing is silencing those who should be speaking up, while enabling those who need to hear the Truth.
In this thrilling conclusion, I’m going to explain why you shouldn’t be afraid or look down on the Christians who YOU THINK are holier than thou. These might be the very same people who have a hand in saving your life.
Sure, some can be annoying. Some people don’t know the meaning of discretion, time and place. And when you really do love your sinful behavior, when you just want to relax, take it easy and not care about how God feels about every little thing…these Christians can be infuriating. I get it. So, let’s talk about it.
This is Part Three of my series where I set out to abolish the fear so many Christians have of being called Judgmental. It’s making Christians look bad. It’s giving Atheists and Agnostics good reasons to reject Christ. And it’s silencing those who should be speaking up, while enabling those who need to hear the truth.
First off…let’s go ahead and address a major fallacy with “Judge Not Lest Ye Be Judged!” You guys know you’re still going to be judged, right?
In 2019, a woman named Hannah Brown made headlines while starring as the “Bachelorette”…where she proudly proclaimed, “I’ve have had sex and honestly, Jesus still loves me.“
Fair enough. Jesus still loves you. Sure. Sure. Now ask yourself…do you think he’s happy with you? Do you think he’s happy with what you’ve done? Do you care? Is that important to you? Because talk is cheap. What do your actions demonstrate?
In 2024…we need to let go of this fear of being called “Judgmental.” It’s making Christians look bad. It’s giving Atheists and Agnostics good reasons to reject Christ. And it’s enabling those who think they’re Christians to let go of their fear of disobeying God.
This will be the first of four posts where I reveal the “Real Reasons Why Christians Hate Being Judged.” For this post…we’re going to talk about how my generation’s indoctrination with the belief that we’re all equals and the same…it’s created an ego and a sense of entitlement.
Very often, the thing that silences a lot of Christians from speaking up and calling out bad behavior, is the fact that they themselves are sinners too. So what are we to do? Is no one allowed to say anything, because we’ve all been bad? I don’t think so.
Here, we have a rapper named Holy Gabbana calling out Lil Nas X for titling himself a “Christian” all while promoting, celebrating, and encouraging homosexuality and un-Christian behavior. By “Christian Behavior,” I’m referring to the action of being a follower of Christ. Anyone can claim to be a Christian. But actually adhering to the standards Christ and his Apostles laid out, that’s the behavior we’re talking about here.
This one goes out to all the Christians who are trying to live by Christ’s standards, and they’re asked this question. Especially if you feel like you’re the only one following the rules and getting nowhere for your efforts.
The question relates to what I’m looking for in a mate. The question implies that you will probably never find what you’re looking for because what you want is unrealistic and thus, you need to let go of these standards and get with the times.
Even if you rephrase the question with the warning of, “you know the kind of person you’re looking for is rare, right?” There are still implications. If you don’t follow up with any kind of encouragement, it does suggest that YOU THINK I should look for something else.
Despite the inflammatory title, it is a legit question that I ask with love and kindness. Because I have a great deal of compassion for the ladies of my generation…especially the ones who think “if I don’t have sex with him, I’ll lose him.”
As always, I must disclaim that I’m not talking about ALL women. There are a lot of women who understand what I’m about to say. I’m trying to help those who don’t. Also, it’s to help the Good Men out there, not the Pookies and Ray-Rays who have no intentions of getting married, yet they still expect sex from you.
Because I think this topic is a HUGE reason why a lot of women may find Good Christian men intimidating. They’ll say we’re lame, boring, or that they’re naturally attracted to the bad boys. But in truth, I suspect they’re intimidated by Good Christian Men who live by God’s standards because, without sex, they honestly don’t know what else they can offer a man. Thus, they have little to no power over him. Let’s talk about it.
Here, we have an interview where a 40-year-old woman explains that the reason why she broke up with her Good Man…is because the Sex wasn’t good. This woman claims to be a Christian. The man she was with, claimed to be a Christian. This is a problem.
Ladies and gentlemen, plainly put…all sex outside of marriage is wrong. If you’re engaging in the hook-up culture, if you’re having sex with your boyfriend or girlfriend and you’re not married, you’re indulging in sexual immorality. It’s called fornication. According to 1 Corinthians 6:9-11, the Scriptures tell us that people like this have no place in the Kingdom of Heaven.
In the video, you’ll find around 8:47 mark, that the woman says, “I would literally pray” for the sex to get better. And then she laughs that, “I probably shouldn’t have been praying to God to fix the sex in my non-married relationship.”
When did it become cool and hip to harass and persecute Jewish people again? You could say, “it’s not about a hatred for Jews, it’s about the liberation of Palestine.”…is that the truth?
I was working on October 7th when I saw the headlines go up, that young men and women attending a music festival were attacked and killed. I didn’t know who was attacking them. Only that they were attacked. Militants parachuted down and began shooting indiscriminately.
Hundreds were taken hostage. Some women were raped, stripped naked, and paraded on the back of trucks while people spat on them. That was someone’s daughter. Someone’s sister. Someone’s cousin.
From that alone…one would think that whoever’s responsible should be hunted down and brought to justice, right? One would think that we can all agree killing innocent women and children is wrong, right?
