A Christian Gut-Check! Are You Doing What Jesus Said?
When you look at non-affirming Christians, and you look at Jesus, they often seem as far apart as they could get.
There are so many things that many Christians are doing and believing that are so unlike the Jesus they claim to follow. But they slap Jesus’ name on it like a stamp of approval.
Honestly, Jesus has to be shaking his head saying, "Oh my gosh! Please—stop!"
So what are those differences? It’s time for a Christian gut-check!
