The Ugly in Christianity

Article Date - 06/09/2016

And this is what we are trying to bring out. Most Christians have no clue what it means to be a Christian "Because strait [is] the gate, and narrow [is] the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it" (Matthew 7:14). Unfortunately to the non-Christians, they see the majority as the example of what Christians are, and that is sad. True Christians and false ones are represented in this scenario:

"And it came to pass, when the time was come that he should be received up, he stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem, And sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him. And they did not receive him, because his face was as though he would go to Jerusalem. And when his disciples James and John saw [this], they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did? But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of. For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save [them]. And they went to another village" (Luke 9:51-56).

But no matter how poor of an example or even how bitter an enemy of Christ is present with us, never does a true Christian get excited about their death, let alone be calling such upon them.
