The Problem With Some Professing Christians

I had a random urinalysis today and I was sitting with the other people who were waiting for their turn. One person I sat by was a friend and co-worker of mine. I overheard him speaking with the girl next to him about religious stuff. Then he brought me in on the conversation, asking me what I thought about Christians drinking alcohol, and pointed to the verse where Jesus made water into wine. I noted that yes, the wine was more than likely alcoholic because there was no method of purification from fermentation until the 1800's and that the Bible always mentions wine "making the heart merry". I mentioned to them both that the Bible doesn't condemn drinking wine but it warns against getting drunk because being drunk causes the mind to have perverse thoughts, and no one can deny this fact; and drunkenness on many occasions causes many bad memories and sinful moments. The girl began to rail on other Christians for "judging" and being hypocritical, mentioning that many people tell her not to do things when they themselves do them. She wouldn't give a specific incident, which is usually the case with so-called Christians who somehow claim to be Christians but hate other Christians. She also said that sometimes she just doesn't want to go to church and people should leave her alone and not bug her about it. Church might last for an hour, maybe two depending what church service she goes to. She also mentioned that she likes to go to the clubs on Saturday nights, and I'm sure she spends far more than an hour or two at the clubs, yet she complains that people ask her to spend an hour at Church to worship the God who created her. She still claimed to be a Christian, saying that she believes in God. I told her that she should know, then, when she is doing wrong, and that if she is a Christian she should WANT to go to church to worship the God who saved her. The book of James says that "even the demons believe, and tremble". Demons believe in God. As a matter of fact, they have a greater understanding of God's greatness because they are spirits who were once partakers of heavenly things. This doesn't make them good with God, their belief in Him doesn't do one thing for them. They are lost and condemned to hell for eternity. It is so frustrating to hear people who claim to be Christians cut down Christianity and call people hypocrites. These people don't realize that they are being "hypocritical" and confessing their hypocrisy as they judge others. These kinds of people are happy to live in sin. The Church is full of false converts and new Christians who mess up. Christians are not perfect people. They should strive to be godly people, and yes, Jesus does say, "be ye perfect, as your Father in heaven is perfect." Unfortunately, I didn't get to say all I wanted to to her. A truly saved person doesn't behave that way. Yes, a saved person will notice hypocrisies and will be disappointed from time to time, but they love Jesus Christ at all times and could never speak a bad word against Him or His Church. So many people have forgotten the greatness of the Lord, our God. He is to be feared, praised, reverenced, loved and obeyed at all times and by all people. So many Christians are in it for themselves, what they can get out of this whole "Jesus thing". I'm afraid these people are in for a big let down. Jesus promised sufferings and persecutions. He also promised eternal life, and that is the prize. Being a Christian is about falling on our faces and saying, "Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of Sabbaoth" and giving thanks always. All things come from the Lord and the very breath you just took, the heartbeat that just pumped is because the Lord gave you life, air and the food that you ate this day. Give thanks with a grateful heart and love the Lord.
