Character flaws in a Christians​

Greetings
if Imay, let's see what the word says
Jer 2:29-31 (KJV) Wherefore will ye plead with me? ye all have transgressed against me, saith the LORD. In vain have I smitten your children; they received no correction: your own sword hath devoured your prophets, like a destroying lion. O generation, see ye the word of the LORD. Have I been a wilderness unto Israel? a land of darkness? wherefore say, my people, We are lords; we will come no more unto thee?

Jer 5:1 (KJV) Run ye to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places thereof, if ye can find a man, if there be any that executeth judgment, that seeketh the truth; and I will pardon it.

Jer 5:4-5 (KJV) Therefore I said, Surely these are poor; they are foolish: for they know not the way of the LORD, nor the judgment of their God. I will get me unto the great men, and will speak unto them; for they have known the way of the LORD, and the judgment of their God: but these have altogether broken the yoke, and burst the bonds.

Jer 5:3 (KJV) O LORD, are not thine eyes upon the truth? thou hast stricken them, but they have not grieved; thou hast consumed them, but they have refused to receive correction: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they have refused to return.

1 Thess 2:15-16 (KJV) Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men: Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins always: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.

Jeremiah 7:27-31 (NKJV) "Therefore you shall speak all these words to them, but they will not obey you. You shall also call to them, but they will not answer you.
"So you shall say to them, 'This is a nation that does not obey the voice of the LORD their God nor receive correction. Truth has perished and has been cut off from their mouth.
Cut off your hair and cast it away, and take up a lamentation on the desolate heights; for the LORD has rejected and forsaken the generation of His wrath.'
For the children of Judah have done evil in My sight," says the LORD. "They have set their abominations in the house which is called by My name, to pollute it.
And they have built the high places of Tophet, which is in the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire, which I did not command, nor did it come into My heart.

Proverbs 24:14 (NKJV) So shall the knowledge of wisdom be to your soul; If you have found it, there is a prospect, And your hope will not be cut off.

Proverbs 23:12-14 (NKJV) Apply your heart to instruction, And your ears to words of knowledge.
Do not withhold correction from a child, For if you beat him with a rod, he will not die.
You shall beat him with a rod, And deliver his soul from hell.

Proverbs 8:33 (NKJV) Hear instruction and be wise, And do not disdain it.

Hebrews 12:3-8 (NKJV) For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, lest you become weary and discouraged in your souls.
You have not yet resisted bloodshed, striving against sin.
And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons: "My son, do not despise the chastening of the LORD, Nor be discouraged when you are rebuked by Him;
For whom the LORD loves He chastens, And scourges every son whom He receives."
If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not chasten?
But if you are without chastening, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate and not sons.

Ecclesiastes 5:2 (NKJV) Do not be rash with your mouth, And let not your heart utter anything hastily before God. For God is in heaven, and you on earth; Therefore, let your words be few.

Matthew 5:37 (NKJV) But let your 'Yes' be 'Yes,' and your 'No,' 'No.' For whatever is more than these is from the evil one.

The Busybody, Gossip, Nosey, Idleness is not discernment, it is sowing the seed of tares
2 Thessalonians 3:10-12 (NKJV) For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat.
For we hear that there are some who walk among you in a disorderly manner, not working at all, but are busybodies.
Now those who are such we command and exhort through our Lord Jesus Christ that they work in quietness and eat their own bread.

2 Thessalonians 3:11 For we hear that there are some who walk among you in a disorderly manner, not working at all, but are busybodies.

1 Timothy 5:13-17 And besides they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house, and not only idle but also gossips and busybodies, saying things which they ought not.
Therefore, I desire that the younger widows marry, bear children, manage the house, and give no opportunity to the adversary to speak reproachfully.
Some have already turned aside after Satan.
If any believing man or woman has widows, let them relieve them, and do not let the church be burdened, that it may relieve those who are really widows.
Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and doctrine.

1 Peter 4:15-16 (NKJV) But let none of you suffer as a murderer, a thief, an evildoer, or as a busybody in other people's matters.
Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this matter.

In my experience if someone overtly claims to be a Christian with every other breath you better watch your six around them.

In my experience if someone overtly claims to be a Christian with every other breath you better watch your six around them.

Same here. I wanna talk to the guy that says "I like to sleep good at night".

or.."We gotta do it the right way".

The foundation to the house I used to live in is testament to that.

The 1st contractor that poured the slab was one of those "Christian" types, and it was all kinds of wrong.

Therefore another entire 8" slab had to be constructed on top of the catastrophe that he laid down, and he did not get paid,

and he should not have. Holes had to be drilled, rebar pounded in, steel tied, all of that. Pfft "Sign of the Fish."

Be wary of those with Christianity on their chest. People ain't gotta be religious zealots to be good people, either.

Good people are where you find them, but knowing God's standards does give people a template.

Yeah, I always get nervous when I'm in a crowd and I see someone wearing a cross or a Christian-themed pin. I just know they're wearing a suicide vest under their clothes, just waiting to set it off so they can go to heaven and get their 72 Virgin Marys.

I usually just back away slowly.

I see your

For I acknowledge my transgressions And my sin is always before me.
Against You, You only, have I sinned, And done this evil in Your sight-- That You may be found just when You speak, And blameless when You judge.
Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, And in sin, my mother conceived me.
Psalms 51:3-5 (NKJV)

"Come now, and let us reason together," Says the Lord, "Though your sins are like scarlet, They shall be as white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, They shall be as wool.

No, but I would not recommend having them do things for you, ok?

I'm gonna have to disagree with Ol' Sam on that one.

No human being without dementia problems has a memory that short.

They either have a conscience or they don't. Some people just don't. Some of those people that don't, use that "the sign of the fish"

to trick people into trusting them when they are completely untrustworthy and total charlatans.

I have to thank God I have a pretty good radar for feeling people out, on both sides of business deals.

I've been both the the contractor and the contractee many a time. Probably never both at the same time, but OK..

Yeah, that's the hand that I've been dealt and I'm playing it!

Yep, but by and large quiet agnostics are better to be around.
