You may be playing Christianity if you…

  • Pray in King James
  • Think God is a republican
  • Think God is a democrat
  • Put your country over your faith
  • Care more about the baby inside of the womb than you do the child outside of the womb
  • Are homophobic
  • Have no friends that are not Christian
  • Only hang out with church folk
  • Try to change people to look and act like you
  • Believe the Kingdom of God is for the future
  • Go to church to stay out of hell and eventually go to heaven when you die
  • Minister only within the walls of a church building and the confines of a service, program or event
  • Spend all of your available time in church activity instead of point of need ministry
  • Give money to a church building program and neglect the poor in your community
  • Do not stand for faith and justice
  • Read Christian books and not the Bible
  • Believe your theology is 100% accurate
  • Believe your denomination is “The Denomination”
  • Believe your church is “The Church”
  • Believe that the “house church” is what God intended for the church
  • Believe that the “institutional church” is what God intended for the church
  • Do not love God with everything you have
  • Do not love ALL people regardless of race, gender, economic status or sexual orientation
  • Walked an aisle and repeated a prayer after a person instead of denying yourself, taking up your cross and following Jesus
  • Find this list offensive

Please know that I am guilty of all of these at points in my life prior to becoming a Christ follower.  I’m not proud of it and I confess it humbly today before you and God.  I stopped playing Christianity when I decided to follow Jesus instead of just believing in Him.  Now there is no turning back for me.  I'm not perfect, but I have decided to follow Jesus pointing others to Him and no longer play Christianity.

Know that you are loved,

Homophobic ... Are you saying that we are to fellowship and break bread with practising homosexuals? I need a little clarity here.

I've been in the ministry for almost 19yrs now and I'm always amazed at how so called Christians will break bread and fellowship with people who are in adulterous and fornication affairs but oh my to be a homosexual that is a bigger sin! You can break bread, fellowship, love and care for people even through you don't agree with their lifestyles. Jesus did!
