They are Christians without CHRIST

 

They are Christians without CHRIST

America is now in a religious war.  It is an extension of the war that has been going on since the country was founded.  The majority of those calling themselves Christians are people who do NOT follow the teachings of Jesus Christ.    

We see it everywhere and it has now become an obscenity and MOCKS Jesus and his teachings.

These Christian Hypocrites must be pointed out and REBUKED.

Jesus tells us to “Rebuke” Sinners

( rebuke - defined in Merriam-Webster’s on-line dictionary

1 a : to criticize sharply : REPRIMAND b : to serve as a rebuke to
2 : to turn back or keep down : CHECK)

Luke 17:3-4

 3"Be on your guard! If your brother sins, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.

 4"And if he sins against you seven times a day, and returns to you seven times, saying, 'I repent,' forgive him."

The fact is we all know this to be true and yet we do not speak out as Jesus demands.

Jesus DEMANDS we do the following:

Matthew 22:37-40 

 

37”And He said to him, "YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND.'

38"This is the great and foremost commandment.

39"The second is like it, YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.'

 40" On these two commandments depend the whole Law and the Prophets."

Mark 10:19 

19"You know the commandments, DO NOT MURDER, DO NOT COMMIT ADULTERY, DO NOT STEAL, DO NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS, Do not defraud, HONOR YOUR FATHER AND MOTHER.'"

Matthew 7:12 GOLDEN RULE -

12 “Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.”

John 14:15 “If ye love me keep my commandments.”

These are NOT recommendations, they are NOT optional – Jesus demands them of all who claim to be Christian.

Unless the churches begin to demand their members obey the commandments of Jesus they will become irrelevant – even EVIL, for they are leading their flock away from Christ and salvation.

Jesus tells us by their fruit we can tell who they are.  A good tree can’t produce bad fruit and a bad tree can’t produce good fruit.  Their DEEDS will trip them up.

Who are these false and corrupt Christian Hypocrites?

1.    Those that refuse to help the poor - Republicans

2.    Refuse to provide healthcare to the needy - Republicans

3.    Vote for tax cuts for the wealthy - Republicans

4.    Start wars that don’t need to be fought - Republicans

5.    Mistreat prisoners – beat them, starve them, keep them naked and clod, etc - Republicans

6.    Spend a trillion dollars each year on war and the military - Republicans

7.    Those who call people names, nigger, faggot, homo – Tea Baggers and Republicans

8.    The rich and the greedy – Jesus, “Sell whatever thou hast and give it to the poor”  

9.    Those who support cruel dictators – Communist China and Saudi Arabia

10. Protect child molesters in the church – Catholic Church

The right-wing nut-jobs and the militias who demand violence and those who support them – Republicans

The next time you hear one of these so called Christian nut-jobs talk like this you should recite the Second Commandment and the Golden Rule and refuse to listen.  The next time the right-wing complains about helping the “least among us”, you should quote Jesus and not vote for them.

If you claim to be a Christian start living the commandments – or be honest enough to stop calling yourself a Christian.

Matthew 25:44-46 

44"Then they themselves also will answer, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not take care of You?'

45"Then He will answer them, 'Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.'

46"These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."
