Being Nice and Christian Don’t Actually Mix

Sunday best, false smiles, empty words about how the Lord is good, ending conversations with people you don’t really care about with ‘Take care, i’m praying for you’.  Really now, if that’s what this whole business of christianity is about than, i need an out - fast.  Ok just kidding, but i think you know what i’m getting at.

Ladies and gentlemen, if you are sitting within the comfort zones of christianity then can i implore you to go and do something good that’s going to make your heart beat faster and your skin temperature go up, because you’re unsure about the outcome.

Understand that chasing after God, doesn’t mean you become the most liked person on the face of the Earth, or the biggest push-over this side of the globe.  (It’s your sin that Jesus took away not your backbone)

Go and make a difference in this world that is going to bring some wanted and unwanted attention to you. 

If it’s one thing i DON’T want anybody to even CONSIDER writing on my tomb stone is ‘Here lies Andrew – He was a nice guy.’  If so, then i would have missed totally in becoming more like Christ.

Don’t believe me, go read up about what happened to the guy who started all this, what society crucifies a man for being ‘nice’?.

Start doing things that are going to put you in the line of fire….darts. ;)
