Zone1 Are "Christians" ashamed of Jesus?

[Samofvt]

The highest goal in any true Christian's life should be to become more like Jesus.

This lady may be a good soul, but she is ashamed of Jesus. Can we giver her some support and let her know it's okay to be with Jesus, to become like Jesus?



The Pope of the Christian church is apparently ashamed of anyone who would become like Jesus, even though that person really just wanted to be a medic and rescue some people.

But it's okay. In the name of Jesus Christ, we forgive the Pope. We've known for some time it was all fake. A little bit like keeping the faith of Santa Clause alive for our children.

We will keep the faith alive. For God is through all of us. Our Saviors words were not all written down on paper for good reason. Words written down on paper or tablets can be corrupted by men for their own purposes. The best words Jesus taught us were written across our hearts.

If you sit still and listen, you will know them again. And if you stop demanding things from God in your "prayers", then you may also hear He has not gone anywhere and is still here.

The problem of all time is that sometimes it's hard to tell if what you hear comes from the devil or from our Savior. Some may perish, and we will still pray for their redemption.

I believe some Christians are ashamed of Jesus but, then, they aren't Christians. Christians elevate Christ above all people and things and are NOT ashamed to sing His praises.

I believe Trump feels on par or greater than Christ. But Trump is boastful, arrogant, shameless, shameful, dishonest, foolhardy, brash, boorish, immature, and nasty. In other words, he's the very antithesis of Jesus Christ. Worst of all (at least for Trump) he has no love of Christ or fear of Christ. At least not in the public square. He even desecrated Easter by posting the "F" word instead of thanking Christ for His sacrifice.

Christ is the ultimate Judge of our souls. Before Him, our righteousness is but filthy rags. Christ will also return with His angels and do a "house cleaning" of all house cleanings. "Vengeance is mine saith the Lord." He won't be mocked.

Christ is so powerful that even demons tremble. In a strange way, demons & devils have more faith in the power of Christ than brash and boastful world leaders like Trump do.

James 2:19, “Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.”

Opposing Trump portraying himself as Jesus is not being ashamed of God.

It is the response to the thread title. It has nothing to do with Trump.

The thread title is about people being ashamed that Trump portrayed himself as Jessus.

We read about Jesus in the Bible. That is how we recognize what He says. If it's not from Christ, the Holy Spirit will let you know.

Answer the question.

Let me provide the hidden words of your question: "Since you have faith in something that can not be proven with technology and that is greater than yourself, are you insane?"

The answer is no.

Insanity would be repeating the same mistakes we (mankind) has made over and over since recorded history. America broke free from that trap for many generations. The reason we broke free was because we placed faith in the teachings of Jesus Christ, that we are all equal in the eye of our Lord (or whatever word you use to represent the great spirit). It is the reason so many native americans agreed to merge with the new colonists: history on that topic has been re-written in part only because conflict sells better than harmony. Sure, there were some who refused to acknowledge the benefits of the new technologies that Europeans brought. But the majority simply merged with the new culture. That story is not told because it doesn't sell as much as violence.

Several hundred million Catholics. Yep

^Billions.

We must forgive those who fall victim to the lure of power. Not one of us alive would pass that test without any failing. We can only hope that some of them carry forward the fundamental truths.
