Why Are So Many Christians So Ignorant Of Their Own Professed Religion?


* Perceive temptation as sin, while the Bible says that temptation is inevitable and what we do with that temptation determines sin;
* Try to dictate who is and who is not going to Heaven, ignore John 3:17 and the words spoken by the Apostle Paul;
* Look at me stupid when I mention the Beatitudes;
* Can’t tell me the 10 commandments, the Fruits of the Spirit, the Gifts of the Spirit;
* Take single scriptures out of context with the verses before and after and completely ignorant of the conditions under which the words were spoken or written …..
Former Christian, Christian School student, haven’t stepped foot inside a church (except for one wedding) in almost 10 years — yet scriptures I haven’t read in over 20 years are ingrained in my memory and spill out onto the keyboard, Yet Christians who go to church every Sunday like clockwork and who claim to have their daily devotionals and Bible study time, can’t tell me the basic fundamentals of Christianity?
It’s probably a good thing I’m not phony, because I believe I could start a church and reign in all these ignorant, self-professed Christians and become the next Jim Jones on their dime.
I don’t get it. If you don’t love and devour the Holy Scriptures of your religion, regardless of that religion, then how can you affiliate yourselves as one of them?
