I have to share a thought with you all today regarding the things that I see some of us who want to be known as a good Christian may do to each other, especially fellow Christians. But to start , I will say that no one person on the face of GODS earth is perfect or should claim to be. Only JESUS could claim that.
But I will say that we all are responsible for the choices that we make to each other and for ourselves as well. And going with this, the things that those who seek to give knowingly hurt in any way shape or form to a true child of GOD is not right with GOD.
I have been in prayer over situations that I KNEW only the power of GOD had intervened and made what was wrong very, very right. For what GOD does is always right and fair. On both sides of the situation too for the people involved, there is the perfect loving conclusion.
We Christians are continually under some form of persecution, be it by believers or non believers at some point in time of our lives. We can go under persecution from the second a secular person can sense we are not like them. The flesh is weak and those who live by the ways of the world don’t see what they are doing will lead them to the negative path in the end.
As I work in the secular office world, there are those who claim to be a Christian and are really not. You see it by the fruit that they bear and the ways that they just go about doing things in life. Some will pick and choose what they want from the Bible to fit into what they want in their lives.
This is not good to do, for they are using the Bible as they feel it should fit into the lifestyle that they are living. The only person they are fooling is themselves, for GOD knows the heart of all mankind.
Galatians 6:7-9 King James Version7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. 8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. 9 And let us not be weary in well-doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. King James Version

What About Hypocrites in the Church?
Ephesians 5:13-14 Authorized (King James) Version
13 But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. 14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
Romans 12:19 King James Version
19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
Ephesians 6:10-18 King James Version (KJV)
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
GODs Team! Be encouraged.
