How to identify a healthy Christian and an unhealthy Christian

[jennifer_bloom]

A real Christian views the bible and the act of religious practice as an excuse and reason to care for and love and protect and bless and help and rejoice in others

A sick minded Christian views religion as an excuse to judge and condemn and avoid and mock and humiliate others

A real Christian practices a gracious and compassionate and warm and inviting and surrendered and compassionate love

A bad Christian practices a controlling and possessive and abusive and rude and competitive and jealous and angry and ungrateful type of love

Like a good wife, good wisdom is patient and sweet

Like a bad wife, bad wisdom is confrontational and insensitive

Reading through this, I'd say I'm more of a real Christian but I have a few of the bad Christian similarities 🤔

by the way, just wanted to make this joke: like a good wife, state farm is there 👍😁 alright, I'm done. Sorry for that

[Jjpayne]

Could not agree with you more! Follow the fruits of the spirit! I'd also add the corinthians love verse

[Jjpayne]

Thank you for the mho 😊

I'm tempted too say a healthy Christian is an Ex - Christian, or recovering Christian on the road to recovery, but there may be some decent people out there who consider themselves Christians who are not bigoted, judgmental, prejudiced, self-righteous, or intrusive overbearing antagonist to the point of being religious extremists.
Jesus was a carpenter who did great work with his hands, not because of all that offensive crap about being meek and humble and self-loathing and mild-mannered and ashamed of everything about themselves, while trying to stay under everyone's radar, but because he truly loved working with his hands and took pride in his work, which I can relate to, being of the same mind in that regard.
He did the same when it came to moral or decisions about living a decent life and treating others the way you would have them treat you. Being kind, because that's the way to be, just makes sense and no one is born evil, sometimes they just make mistakes and you got to kind of help point them in the right direction.
Look, weather Jesus was the son of God or not, I really don't give a crap. I respect the guy because he tried to do good and he, for the most part, seemed to live up to the objective of being a good person, and tried to set a good example for others too follow, which is what we should all be doing, so I'm not going to down Jesus for the distorted, perverse views that many people have misinterpreted or deliberately distorted from the Bible and from other religious texts.
Obviously, I was raised in a 🔒🔐 minded community by an open 📖😺 minded Mother, and I don't always show Christians the respect she would like me to but that's only because those individuals that I don't show respect you don't deserve it and are not entitled to it.
Frankly, and I am going to be frank here, whether you like it or not, so those of you who don't like, can go suck it. For the rest of you, I really don't care if you're Christian or not, it has no bearing on how I 🤔 think of you and really makes no difference to me one way or the other. I have absolutely no interest in hearing about it if you do, as long as you're a decent person around me and the people around me. I'll make every effort to be decent to you whether you are to me or not, not because Yaweh, Krishna Allah or any other deity told me to, but because that's just the way I am, and it's the way I'm wired.
A healthy Christian is a human being who adheres to good human principles because it's the right thing to do, and takes positive references and examples from the Bible if it can help them be a better person.
If you're not decent to me I'll try being indifferent to you if you push me beyond indifference you're not going to like me being unpleasant.

I believe there is a balance between word and action. You need the talk and the walk. The Holy Spirit does bring conviction within The Word of God. And that is what the world calls judgey or insensitive, but like a spanking in discipline it is neither, but rather righteous and direct. If the Word of God feels like Judgement to you, that is Conviction. It is better for you to be judged now than at the Judgement. People can wrongfully try to assert their own judgement with God's Word, but Only God is qualified to deliver Judgement. As Christians we are directed by the Holy Spirit to deliver God's Word, whether a person feels Judged by them is between them and God.

You are right as it comes to action. We are directed to act in Love. It is not our Job to deliver vengeance, as Vengeance is mine sayeth the Lord. God does delegate justice to Governments and households, but you cannot deliver Justice outside of your office of home or Government. A mother and father can deliver justice to their children and if you are in the Judicial you can deliver justice. Jesus instructs us in Truth and Love. If we Love someone we will give them the Truth. Our actions shall reflect our devotion to God, not seeking our own. If you knew a loved one was headed for destruction would you not warn them?

Agreed, Christianity is more be about the "love your neighbour like you would love yourself" and "dont judge others if you dont want to be judged yourself".

There is already too much hate in this world so we really dont need to add more to it. We should leave the world in as a better place than we found it.

they are all christians. you don't get to determine who's crhsitian or not. cause as you did this, you are what you said: A sick minded Christian that views religion as an excuse to judge and condemn and avoid and mock and humiliate others...
you are not allowed to judge over others. god is, not you. people read the bible in different ways, you don't get to tell them they are wrong about how they do it.

christianity is nothing but a personal opinion at the end of the day. nobody gets to tell anyone else that "they're not a good christian" or "an unhealthy christian" or whatever. what you did here is not ok and violates your own faith.

christianity is "believe" and how they believe is none of your business. if you wanna argue with reason and logic, you have to leave faith and believe, cause only then you can do that. only outside of faith and believe you can tell people that they are wrong.

Like Israel Folau saying that the worst Australian bushfires in history were because of gay people and gay marriage yep they were the ones that caused it. 👎🏻
And then Scotty from marketing wanted to introduce freedom of religion when really what we need is freedom from religion. We are one, but we are many

And from all the lands on earth we come 🇭🇲re-state://background_color_rgba (0, 0, 0, 0), font_color_rgb (77, 77, 77), justifyLeft

This reminds me of all the feminists who refer to other feminists as "not real feminists" simply because they view things differently.

[Newhead]

Everything you said is all facts.

[Maraneva]

Truer words were never said!

[DaMack999]

Simple. They are practicing Christian. They have faith.

[Shuttlebus78]

Sometimes I get so annoyed by fake Christians I say mean, but truthful things about them.

[PaganWarrior]

Im a heathen xD
