Christians now a days, are something else. "Proclaiming" they are Christians, then they go off and drink and party. HMMMM, were they really Christians in the first place? If you truly proclaim you are a Christian, you won't live a life (A LIFE, not a phase of time) of satisfying the god of this world. NO, rather, satifying the one and true God.



Heres my thing on drinking. An occasional drink with dinner, when you are of age, is fine. Jesus drank wine with supper. When you are under age, and when you are getting drunk, thats where its a problem. Your body is a temple, impairing that body is not good... but hey, people are going to do what they want to do anyway. I mean, you are a Christian, you've taken on the cross and now are following Christ... You deserve a good drink every once in awhile, right? Keep up the good work of letting people know how Christians act :) (In Matthew, it talks about how the best kind of witness is your good works) Sorry about the harshness.



Believe me, I'm not perfect either. Who is? Jesus Christ who took on the sins (all past, present and future) and we are to be like Him. Last time I checked he didn't get drunk or do drugs or have pre-marital sex.... Christians are not protraying Christ like He needs to be. I didn't (don't) either, for a long time. I was being stupid... You know what "finally" convicted me? Being in church, still high from the night before. And you know what? I didn't stop there, I went on a mission trip and shared my testimony in front of my entire church family, friends, and even some non-Christians. It was all good, when I was still on my fire for the moment, and then guess what? I screwed up again. It's hard for me to admit that, because I can't believe I let myself hurt myself, others and most importantly God again. It only proves God's grace and mercy. How I see things, everything happens for a reason, a reason I may not understand yet.. And I don't live with regrets. Although I am not perfect, God is and He makes no mistakes. Everything that has happened is within the soveriegnty of God's will. Why sulk and regret, when you could rather praise God. As for me, I would rather praise God.



But the underlying point to all of this, I was NOT strong. I did not strengthen myself. Are you really strong if you do stupid things? No you aren't. Do you even care? Probably not. Should you? Yes.What will get you to stop? Probably something really awful, and if you sit back and think about it, that is absolutely sad. You say nothing will happen, since when did you play God? Last time I checked He's the only one who knows whats gonna happen... and you have no control over that. So yeah, go ahead continue being stupid and thinking you know whats gonna happen. Have fun with that! I am mean come on, Christians are a chosen ones, one who God placed His Holy Spirit to draw you to become born again and then saved (John 3:5-7) and how do you (I) repay him? Go off and be stupid, when we should be going off and make fishers of men (Matthew 28:16-20)



Point: Christians are Christians. Some are portraying Christ how they are supposed to, some aren't. I'm not perfect, and this is not me trying to judge where you stand with God. Not my place. Just my opinion on some things.

Thanks for reading.
