day 22- something that upsets you

First, I want to apologize because I haven't really been religious with this 30-day blog challenge. It’s just been so busy for me these past weeks. I am juggling so many things, and this is just one day I get to take time to blog. 

So for this day, i have to talk about something that upsets me, and the thing that is in my mind right now is the word "Hypocrite".

i am really sensitive here because i do not like seeing people who do not practice what they preach. i mean no one's perfect, and although i am all for Christ-like living, i stumble but it doesn't mean i am not trying. but it's just that sometimes it is so apparent when others do things differently from what they say. 

Examples are so-called Christians who talk dirty about non-believers. here is one experience.

i tweeted before, "people say that Christianity needs proof, but they don’t know that Atheism needs proof too.” a friend replied to that tweet and told me that she didn’t get it because atheism is the absence of a God so what proof is there for that. And i replied with an example. i told her that Christians get their moral law from God, a right and a wrong, but if atheists dont believe in God then where do they get their right and wrong from. i got this example from debates between Christians and atheists. After i tweeted that, an atheist account replied to me. i dont want to put anymore what he said because id have to explain it and thats not the point. haha! ANYWAYYYY

i checked out the profile and looked at his tweets and the people he replied to and i saw so many things that shocked me. i saw so-called believers who would tweet "atheists don’t deserve gifts on Christmas" and other really mean things! 

i was very disappointed.

if you are a Christian, shouldn't you love even those who don't believe? Christ loved everyone, even those who did not believe in Him so who are you to judge those who don't? who are you to say they don't deserve love. who are you to condemn them. we are all just people; imperfect. you judge them for not believing in God, while you have a God and yet you don't follow his footsteps. 

are you sure you are a follower of Jesus Christ?
