Being a Christian doesn’t make me any less human than the next person. I still need grace, as much as the next person. In fact, being a Christian is an outright admission that I’m in need of grace, not a cry that I’m without flaws.

I think that sometimes people are quick to judge every little sin a Christian commits, and thus cast them off as hypocrites. Sadly, then, many people throw the baby out with the bath water.

“That Christian is judgmental!  Christianity is a farce!”

“That church was run by corrupt people.  No church is trustworthy or good!”

“Look how selfish and self-righteous that Christian is!  All Christians are hypocrites!!  Jesus must NOT be the way!”

Please don’t mis-read what I am trying to say.
