They can't be christian or can they?

[horsecamp]

What makes a Christian a Christian?is it their good works? or is it God's good work that Makes a sinner a Christian ?when a sinner becomes a christian does that mean they never sin again in thought word or deed?Why do us christians who also are very sinful like to point at other peoples sin's rather than our own?Is it not because some how it makes us think we are better . And when we think this way are we not really worse?We read in the paper about that other denomination's pastor who was caught in that adulturs affair and say to our selves ah ha . I knew it there just whacky pretenders.Don't we?Or what about our own church members Dont we look down on them when one of their sin's finds one of them out?All the above is wrong and when we think less of other's than our selves or ones we admire. We certainly will fall hard when sin finds us or those we admire out.I am not sure why every ones goes to church.But i find my self going to church more and more because it is I Who need to hear about Gods forgivness for sin's in Christ Jesus . And when sin finds me or one of those I admire out. those sin's no matter how bad they be . They no longer are a threat to my God Given faith in my only savior from my sin's ------Jesus.

Well its certainly not just good works, I believe a christian should do good works but only because they're faith in Jesus and desire to live a christ life leads them to good deeds. Its like C.S. Lewis once said:"I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen. Not only because I see it, but because I see everything by it." ~C.S. LewisAnd being a christian definately doesn't mean we no longer sin, I can personally vouch for that, but rather that our sins are forgiven. And its not just christians who notice the faults of others before our own, its human nature, and something we should TRY to overcome as christians."We read in the paper about that other denomination's pastor who was caught in that adulturs affair and say to our selves ah ha . I knew it there just whacky pretenders.Don't we?" I believe that satan tempts them much more than you or me because they are a public figure. And if they fall then everyone see's and is disheartened. And this is a great way to dissuade people who were considering becoming christians.

What makes a Christian a Christian?is it their good works? or is it God's good work that Makes a sinner a Christian ?( First off Christian does not believe in being saved in works,For you could be the best person of earth,and not make it for Knowing the LORD is the only way)when a sinner becomes a christian does that mean they never sin again in thought word or deed?(We will all fall to sin,It is the human nature to fall to temptation,but we can repent)Why do us christians who also are very sinful like to point at other peoples sin's rather than our own?Is it not because some how it makes us think we are better . And when we think this way are we not really worse?(We should not point out anothers sin,but help them out,lend a hand get a hand,We should always own up for our sins,we are no better than the other when we judge,for only god can judge and know,We are worse when we are pointing things out,because like i said only God can judge)We read in the paper about that other denomination's pastor who was caught in that adulturs affair and say to our selves ah ha . I knew it there just whacky pretenders.Don't we? (We should not say this,instead we should pray for the pastor who fell into temptation as we all do!,By saying ha he was just a whacky pretender are we not prentending to be better?)Or what about our own church members Dont we look down on them when one of their sin's finds one of them out?(I try to look down on nobody for I fall to sin as everyone does)All the above is wrong and when we think less of other's than our selves or ones we admire. We certainly will fall hard when sin finds us or those we admire out.(Very true)I am not sure why every ones goes to church.But i find my self going to church more and more because it is I Who need to hear about Gods forgivness for sin's in Christ Jesus . (Some people go to church to say I go to church,I am a "christian" When really the only "holy thoughts" they have are when church is going on but end as soon as service does. Or they have friends,I know at first church was going for friends,but God changed me through that,and now I know that going to church is not to be "holy" but to be a christian,Means participating in the lifestyle of a christian!) And when sin finds me or one of those I admire out. those sin's no matter how bad they be . They no longer are a threat to my God Given faith in my only savior from my sin's ------Jesus.
(AMEN)
