Christian V.S. Integrity
Dictionary.com defines Christian as a person who believes in Jesus Christ; adherent of Christianity. Society today has taken the word Christian and applied a million different meanings to it. "A person who believes in Jesus Christ" that definition sucks. Why is it that society finds every way possible to avoid defining REAL and TRUE Christians. Because it is so much more than that little 7 word description. To me a Christian is defined as A follower in Jesus Christ; A devoted disciple that lives for the father; Someone who loves without question; Someone who will not judge someone else because of their sin; A friend to those who dont fit in. The list goes on and on. I know why Dictionary. com has put that tiny description on the name Christian. Because most people who call themselves by that name dont live like a Christian should. They dont show love or grace to people who have fallen into sin time and time again. They judge those who are different. They deny Christ in their schools. Christians are thought of as Rich snobby people that want everything for themselves and that dont have the time to worry about poor people or homeless people or people that are dying from their sin. And why shouldnt they think that?! They have every right to think that way. Because we havent dont anything to change it. We have done nothing to prove that Christians are more that believers in Jesus Christ. Lets start Now! Lets change that 7 word description into a 1000 word essay about all the great things that Christians are suppose to be. Lets live like Jesus lived, Forgive like Jesus forgave, Love like Jesus loved, lets walk in the footsteps of Jesus Christ and show this world how truly Glorious he really is! I'm stoked!
