But remember that the Christian faith has caused many folks unimaginable pain and trauma, especially with their vocal involvement in current going-ons.
I love me some Jesus, but I absolutely avoid self-proclaimed Christians. Why? I just don’t want to put myself in situations with people who 98% of the time have hateful ideology. I don’t want it. That is why folks are wary.
If you are a Christian who looks down upon the poor, foreigners, handicapped, disabled, the mentally struggling, the LGBTQ+, or anyone else, you’re a shit Christian who doesn’t follow the teachings of Christ.
If you want to preach Jesus’ message of love and acceptance, more power to you. But you will have a big job ahead of you, because part of your job is to denounce those who preach hate.
You can claim to be a “good Christian” all you’d like, but many will be skeptical unless your actions prove you to be a true follower.
If that’s your goal, you’re on the right path. But do know where others are coming from when they voice their distrust of your intentions. They are not attacking you, but the institution that has hurt so many both now & in the past.
