“You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.” Gal. 3:26-29
This is my favorite part of this text, it is very cool.
Q: (this is once again not from the “Respond” questions, cuz that part is just about praying for people) Do you have a set idea of what a “good Christian” looks like? Who are some people that it has been hard for you to relate to as fellow believers?
A: I have run across several people that made me feel like I was a “poser” Christian. Those people that seem like they have all the answers and are always doing the right thing and are always really nice…even to the jerkoffs who need their vocal cords ripped out. Those kind of people sorta intimidate me, I’m always feeling like coming up short when I’m around them. But I do like learning from them, cuz they usually have a lot of experience from life. I have a hard time relating to people who want to remain oblivious to things as Christians. I don’t know if it is because I can’t relate, because I always want an answer to any question posed to me, or if it is because I think that those people are just stupid and/or wallowing in their ignorance, or I’m jealous because they are just that secure in their faith that they don’t need to answer those questions. But either way, it would be better to try to relate to those people and work toward understanding where they are coming from.
But with that being said, I have class.
