My Religion of Shame or my faith of glory to god
How does one recognize a Christian on the street?How does one define a Christian in a society?How does one live as a Christian during his life?I wonder many of you have got the answers by now , but for those who arestill blind enough to see and deaf enough to listen. I would explain the abovein short.Some of my non-Christians friends say that they define and recognize aChristian by the way they dress up, especially the girls who wear typicalChristain dresses which are skimpy and exposing the frame of body and theyrecognize a Christian boy with long hair, some ear rings, tattoos, foul Englishlanguage which will have some words like MF,, FY,,FO,BAS$%#^%, SON (*&^%% a and many more words probably you know better.
One of my friend emailed me list of identifying a Christian :- 
•
A Christian man /woman drink alcohol and allows even his kids.
•
Christmas & Easter are two great seasons for dance, parties, dating,having lots of booze, proposing a girl/boy or having lots of Pork.

•
A Christian boy or girl can freely have many love affairs and physical relationships with consent of their parents.

A Christian ,,,,,,,I guess is a bad influence on our society , I think they are DEVILS.
However, I was very much angry by the last few sentences but I was lookingthrough the parishes of Roman Catholic Churches and other ministriesaround the city. I visited few Catholic Churches and I observed a verypeculiar sightings what this person had mentioned above, I was alarmed bywhat I had observed and I really felt sad for the Christian society.If that is the way the non-Christians are going to view us, I think it’s really abad image what we as Christians have portrayed to others.One of the best sight I had at the Mount Mary Church during an event whichmarks the feast of that church at Bandra ( Mumbai ) in 2009. I saw a priestholding and almost touching some girls unnecessarily and embracing them anddoing all kinds of immoral body language. I noticed that the girls were notmore than teenagers and they dressed to their minimal. I thought how thecelibacy of a Roman Catholic priest could control his urge of flesh. I wonderwhat that priest must be doing in closed doors, I didn’t see that part so Ibetter not speak about that. Its mentioned in Bible to Glorify Gods name , isthis what is called glorifying Gods name, what a shame.,Ezekiel 13It does not demand that Christians live a separated life dedicated to Godbut what demands today is being “cool”, that’s the in word. Don’t tell me toput the statistics here about crime, unemployment, corruption, rape, childabuse, human rights, abortion and so forth and so on. You can get all thedetails on the newspapers and news channels, it all screams there.Christianity has been reduced to moral thinking rather than moral living.Christianities revival is just a mere handshake, smile or passing of a greetingcard at a prayer service or some Christian’s feasts. I know that multitudesof sects , cults and many congregations and ministries have grown. Perhaps Iwish there was a revival in real terms what it meant to be Love for truth,but it isn’t. The entire revealed truth of God is not declared in the Gospel oftoday so the “converts” wander off after whatever religion suits theirparticular fancy. The keynote today is compromise. Everybody is to forgettheir “petty doctrinal differences” and join hands in a “great compromise.”In the midst of this kind of atmosphere false cults and religions are
 
booming! Modernism marches on!!! the shallow carnal Christian today’s so-called “revival” produces, indeed, if it produces any Christians. May God helpus to return to a gospel that glorifies God, antagonizes Satan, squelches sin,convicts sinners, produces repentance, routs false teachers, abolishes falsereligions, promotes sound doctrine, and brings about the miracle ofregeneration that makes a hell bound sinner into a new creature in ChristJesus.“ But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Holy Spirit of God: Forthey are foolishness unto him., Neither can know them, because they arespiritually discerned” ( 1 Corinthians 2:14 ).One of our fellow church daughters is always faced with some difficult fromher teenage friends and one boy particularly often argues with her on theword of God and he tries to his best twisting and turning the word. Asmentioned in 1 Corinthians 2:14 I find that verse very much for such peoplelike this boy. However, its not a matter of surprise but today in our Christiancommunity many youngsters and elders are drifted away from the real wordof God. These Christians are not at all shameful of their perception asmentioned in the beginning of this article how the non-Christians perceivethem. But they have found delight, the way they are living a false Christianlife and continue to expand their sinful and ungodly horizons even a stepfurther and being born again is just a joke for them……
"There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know thatthou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles thatthou doest, except God be with him. Jesus answered and said unto him,Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot seethe kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be bornwhen he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, andbe born? Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man beborn of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of theSpirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again"(John 3:1-7).
Now let me tell you these words from the Bible are so precise and clear tounderstand , I am sure that many have read these words at their churchreadings, bible studies, Sunday schools or maybe not. Then I ask how come
