Represent

Don’t let others represent you…


The reason I say this is that there are many believers and pastors,preachers,bishops and so on out there that the public get to see and yet they do not represent Christ as they should. There are so called Christian organizations and churches that the masses are exposed to and use them to judge Christians as a whole.
I have noticed that along with the influx of reality shows with Christians on them and the scandals that have been in the public eye, has tarnished the way many people look at Christianity today. There have been believers that backslide because they see other believers partaking in things that aren’t Godly or even saying things that they shouldn’t and open doors for error.


“The Preachers of LA” are a prime example of how believers can be led in error, due to an interview they did on a talk show and asked about a popular hip hop artist whom was very openly demonic and unstable, yet the preachers, except for one, praised the artist and said that the artist is entitled to be “creative” and that they are a musical genius. Not one of them said that the music is not something that believers should listen to or that there is something wrong with the messages the artist puts out and that no one should be listening because it’s demonic and can open doors for demonic activity.


Of course if one of them had said that, they probably would’ve have been heckled, however they would’ve opened up so many minds of the those watching and want to check in the bible if it backs it up, which leads them to actually pick up a bible.



This is not to say that these preachers aren’t any good, or to say that they aren’t saved. I say all this so you know that you have to check things out for yourselves and not let people represent what you are trying to represent if they aren’t sticking to the word of God.
