There are MANY people out there that wear beautiful crosses and say “God bless you” and yet they are the first ones to cuss someone they don’t like out or to lose their temper at the first sight of an offense. Too much of this type of behavior is being exposed to the world and it makes real Christians look foolish and like hypocrites. We can’t let people who look “saved” but act worldly, to serve as examples for all of those who haven’t accepted Jesus Christ into their hearts and lives yet.

Typical Christian symbols are being used as simple fashion accessories or statements and not as a symbol of their faith in Christ. This is no different than how the cross was copied and then inverted to make a demonic symbol out what was holy. When someone who is does not have a pure heart and still wears the things that we identify Christians with, we must not be fooled by their outside image because it could just as easily be a wolf in sheep’s clothing trying trick people into thinking a certain way about Christians.

We hear people say God Bless You and God Bless America and so on, yet they don’t believe in it and are rather just using phrases that we all throw around because it was what we have grown up hearing people say. There is so much of Christ related things that the world uses everyday yet they all use it in vain most of the time because they don’t have the faith to back it up.

Don’t become like those who dress the part of a believer but don’t have the heart or faith to back it. Those are some of the types of people that you have to be careful of.
