Why do so many Christians get angry when they have a different belief than another Christian? They use all CAPS and sometimes call names. They tell the person they are headed for Hell and God will judge them. Why not love and state your case but do it in a graceful way? It's no wonder so many people don't want anything to do with Christianity. Jesus is amazing but His followers, not so much.
newz flash: god iz in your head, not on a cloud in the sky looking down on you, judging your every thought and action. when are people gonna wise up already? goddamn fanatics and zealots.... they should stop trying to tell other people how to live and mind their own fuckin business. as if they lead perfect lives, hypocrite scum.
i had once believed well..."judge not lest ye be judged" then I was once told something rather powerful..."you can judge well a man by the way in which he treats those by which he can gain nothing from".
If ANY church asks you to leave/rejects you b/c of your "sins" .....that is no church of Christianity...for that is not a house of God for which the sinners are turned away from the foundation of where healing from sins should be taught. An analogy would be akin to a doctor telling his sick patient...."go away, this hospital only receives those who are healthy". So one can easily see.....a church is a church (of God) in so much as it helps those IN NEED.
Before i watched this vedio i thought central church very good. But then i there is still this active seperation being created... so may i suggest that central can be more open ie not to be negative about other ppl. anyways no 1 of us is pefect and jesus loves us.
judging is right and ok, but not at the wrong time.
people must know what is wrong and we should show love but also show the consequences if people dont want to stop and rebell. ... this video is false, it is wrong! here they destroy every good and biblical doctrin on judging! Jesus was also judging and many did hat him for that!!
@diewahrheitistnochda “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye." Mattew 7:3-5
I did not know if I was ever on the right path until I surrendered to God through a program of recovery.Today I am constantly rewarded with blessings throughout my day and it is happening for me daily not thinking about what might have been or what might be just being grateful for what my Heavenly Father is allowing be to be a part of,,,Glory To GOD!!!!
There have been some christians that I've met where I was like, "Oh thank God I was a Christian BEFORE I met them!" I've lived my life trying to be the kind of person who treats others with love. Which of course, is what you should do regardless of whether you believe in Christ or not.
I'm not trying to take away from any points made but the video doesn't go far enough. IMO the whole system, including the very understandings of sin and righteousness needs to be examined and questioned; not just the words and actions of a few "bad-apple" Christians.
God judges us. He is the one who decides whether we go to heaven or hell because of what we have done. Christians are slaves of an unruly god who made an imperfect spiecies and then blamed them for his mistakes. On rememberance day our minister told a service of 200 people that the sacrifice of jesus was far greater than the sacrifice of the millions of soldiers who died in the world wars. God was made by people to control people.
@Rikanrox ... So God said to murder, rape, and pillage whoever you please? Ah. Name one of those soldiers, just one, who had never sinned. Here's the issue. SIN is the problem. You can't give sin to get rid of sin.
PLEASE DO NOT READ DONT READ THIS PLEASE DO NOT READ DO NOT READ DO NOT READ swear do not read...I don't even know why I'm participating I guess I'm still a bit paranoid. But really do not read this I swear . Also thanks this was really appreciated. DO NOT READ:This is so stupid... But i love my mom deeply... And i don't want to take any chances. Sorry.

Proof Christianity is a false religion that reflects hate rather than love. Daniel 12:12 (13 5 and 30) - Anything preached outside of John 13:35 and John 13:5 is chaff and will be burned up in the fire. Just as we are all one in Adam (we all die) we are also one in Christ, which is why He said when we do it to the least of these we have done it to Him. I believe in Christ but no way am I a Christian. This Christian thought that "We're better than you" garbage is about to be burned up. Murderers
if Jesus Christ wasn't real in my life I would have stopped being a Christian a long time ago from all the negative encounters I had with religious people in church, one time i said hi to an elder i admired & looking right at me gave me a dirty look & rolled their eyes away cuz i was wearing a bandana. it really hurt me alot, & one time an elder prayed over me at the altar for the "spirit of the world" to leave me & me to focus on Jesus, meanwhile I was praying & reading bible every day already
I actually found the best theology is to:just keep your mouth shut...no one needs to hear anything.No one need to cut someone down.We do judge among our fellow believers BUT: we do it in love and with tact if it is a serious issue witha brother or sister.
So that was about a bunch of cry babies whining because someone said something they thought hurt thier feelings?They should have knew better than to listen to some immature christian tell them they were bad.It was actually oimmature of them to let it affect them that way.If my pastor mouthed off to me i would ahve punched him in the kisser.And you know what...ive come close to slugging the current paster for his moutjh...and he knows it and learned to shut his face around me.
I wonder if Jesus ever would have said to the guy on the cross next to him who was a sinner asking for his forgiveness..."If you couldn't get it this late in the game, forget it" ...
Even I am guilty of judging people and that is something that God is working out in me but turning people away from the church. Isn't that the exact place they need to be?
@shanellypooh the church is not a building, or a "place" the church is everywhere. Humans just meet conveniently at a particular building. Everywhere is Jesus's church so the most profound impact you often have on somebody (usually) is not where you're surrounded by your support group...but when you are alone & face someone in need.
@4smartypants Thats right...we shouldnt let what others say affect us so much if they are christians.They are the one people that should get thier teeth knocked out for saying judgemental shit when its not right.
I can't believe that the "church" as a body (not a building) has hurt people to this extent!!! i think that we just need to show love to people and not worry about much else! i can understand why people don't want to come to church, when the are treated like this!
These are just examples of how far the church has strayed from the teachings of Jesus Christ. The Christian community needs to get into the word and repent!
No church is (and was) perfect from the beggining. If we seek in the bible (at Pauls letters) we will see that all churges had problems. Only Jesus is perfect. So, the best for us is to keep our eyes to Him and take as "not to do" what others do or say in the church (including Pastors also!). He will NEVER let us down!
They don't know Christ as well as they thought ,casuse if they did know Him, they should know TO LOVE ONE AND OTHER AS THEY LOVE THEMSELF. That is the gospel.
Im so glad this video included a gay man i have some many gay friends christian and non who refuse to go to church because of the staring and negative treatment. Im tired of hearing people say "well they are continuing to be gay so they must not be saved" our salvation isnt based upon our ability to become perfect its by grace ...God's salvation is for everyone who seeks it and they wont seek it if they arent encouraged to
Religion is terrible Jesus himself said religion is terrible religion is rules and laws and behavior modification in order to be "good enough" for God and we are supposed to have a personal relationship with God
It is hard for a church to know where to draw the line. A church and its leaders must stand up for the truths of the Bible, but in love, not hatred. Simply accepting people as "the way they are" is not always Biblically correct, and if a person doesn't recognize that they haven't simply "made mistakes," but actually sinned against God, there really is a breaking of fellowship between them and God. How the church handles this makes all the difference, but not addressing it is the biggest mistake.
The line is whether or not the individual acknowledges that what they did was wrong and they need help. If they do, then you should be helping them.
However, if the individual refuses to admit that what they did was wrong and refuses to seek help to stop that sin, then that is when a church needs to make a stand. At my church there was a man who left his wife and began living with a younger woman. Adultery is no worse than other sins, but since he refused to stop he was asked to leave.
Who are they to turn him away? He should be prayed for and counseling offered but to 86 someone?
Only God can damn someones soul. The soul has to be turned away from God but even then we haven't any clue how far God's Grace carries and may be very surprised in the end to see souls you would have never expected because He is the only 1 who knows.
All sin is the same in GODS eyes.... Why do Christians seperate from eachother... HYPOCRACY... by thinking that others sin is worse than yours.... IT IS NOT!!!
In all things GOD works for the greater good. Love eachother don't shame eachother.
Yes this is a shameful thing to happen in the church.. but one good thing about it if God is calling you he will make sure that Holyspirit reaches you. God bless great vid.
A couple years ago, I went to a youth group where everybody hated me for no reason besides the fact I hung back and was nervous. They avoided me, wouldn't let me in on their social groups, just because i looked and thought different then them.
And also it was a big group, so the youth pastor didn't care a lick about what was happening to me, or even who I was. All he cared did was send us kids on guilt trips. I am no longer going to that youth group, and have found two others I'm happy in.
great vidoe..the enemy luvs for Gods born again children to be filled with the Religious Spirit/ Pharisee Spirit...this alawys causes division & pain..rather than addition & growth & love in The Body of Christ... we have to be careful to not do this..looking with compassion,for, all fall short. great post!!! thanks - we need this.
my old church from high school is very judgemental and i will never forgive them for the way they treat some ppl in my home town. i love them but in my eyes we are all below god and god is the ONLY one who can say if we deserve forgivness. thank you for the video. I just wish more ppl werent scared of church. many of us christians are true but many are still putting on a face and hiding from god. thank god for ur videos.
do 'forgive' and help inform them. there are constructive things to attempt in helping change their ways and prayer will be needed to for guidance through such a thing.
The videos from this channel always fascinate me. The target audience for this short is Christians in need of humility but if you're unaware of this then it could be taken as an apostate video. It's risky for it to be left so vague in its message but that's what makes it so good.
