It seems that in the last however many years the bar has been getting lower and lower to define what Christianity is. Originally it was exactly what it was about - having a relationhip with Jesus Christ, the one way to get to heaven, and having fellowship with our Creator, getting to know Him and getting to know ourselves at the same time.
Then it turned into a ritual where we would go to a building called a church for one sunday a week and then say we're fans of God, go home and do whatever we want to do, and spend the rest of our week sinning, then to come back to church the next week and say sorry and do it all over again.
Then it turned into "Oh well Christians, Jews, and Muslims all have the same God, so if you're one of those denominations then you're fine."
And now it's a matter of whether or not you believe in anything at all. If you do believe that there is a possibility of a creator then you're good. And if you just don't believe in anything, then they need to just believe in something and they'll be okay for eternity.
Yeah freaking right.
Why don't we go back to our roots and figure out where we started growing astray? The church needs direction again from God and not from social influences and political factions. I'm sick of seeing this. Anyone else agree?
