I keep thinking that I have nothing to write about. However, the truth is that there is so much going on at the moment that my head is spinning and I have no idea where to start.
I keep writing and erasing because I sound way too bitter. It's been quite a week. There's so much going on, and I stand amazed at how my fellow Christians can behave. Is that wrong to say?
*Why do some of my fellow Christians fail to speak the truth? Jesus didn't mince words. He called those hypocritical leaders "whitewashed tombs," He chased away hypocritical temple workers with a whip. My fellow Christians don't want to "offend" anyone.
*Why are they so concerned with appearances? Jesus was accused of being a glutton and a drunkard by the pious religious leaders of the day. That's how He appeared to them because of the company He was keeping- yet He was Holy.
*Why are they so interested in sharing their own words that they forget to read the Word of God? These are people that spout religious sounding nonsense and can't support it with Scripture.
Christians are supposed to be like Christ. That means that we are to love Prostitutes and Thieves. We're supposed to feed the hungry, and love people who struggle, and give what we have when we see someone in need.
We are to keep ourselves from sin, because like fire, it will burn us.
But you know what? Jesus saved His harsh words for the religious people who missed The Point. They should have known better.
....I feel better already.

In the intrest of not adding bitterness to this post, I shall refrain from commenting.
