She got me thinking (and I will blog again once I organize those thoughts), some Christians have got it all wrong. They appear to be all there, but somewhere down the road, their ideology/theology got twisted. I don't say this to judge, because I admit that I have my share of mistakes, but my friend mentioned many reasons as to why she doesn't like church, and I couldn't help but to feel ashamed. She wasn't directly referring to me; but still, to know I'm still part of a community that fails to see that they are casting away people from the church is humbling on my part.
Church is for sinners - those that are oppressed, those seeking Truth, the lost, and the poor. We are ALL imperfect human beings, yet why do we cast a stone on those that we feel are "more" imperfect? Why do we drive them away?
I'm very upset. What has the Body of Christ been doing all this time?
Reminds me so much of John 4. The woman at the well. The story of MY life.
I need to pray about this. I'm extremely unsettled.
