Something to Keep in Mind

In this 21th century there doesn't seem to be a week that goes by where there isn't something being done in the name of,or under the guise of Christianity, that doesn't contribute to it being viewed unfavorably by the public.Whether it's the farce that is going on in Lakeland,Florida or the obscene and greedy hustlers disguised as "ministers" you can see on cable television making outrageous and unscriptural claims,it's all an insult to our Lord and Saviour.Discerning Christians should know the fakers and the liars but one only wonders what damage this does to those who are searching and in need of a relationship with Jesus.Also,are they turned off by the articles they read and features they see on television? Because lets face it,the majority of news items run in the media these days about Christianity are of a negative and questioning tone,not a positive and edifying one.As believers we must pray daily that the truth of His Love will touch those in need. More importantly,let us pray for the opportunity to share the real Jesus with others.
