ARE YOU TRULY A CHRISTIAN?
It is sad to me to see people on Facebook and other social media venues that call themselves Christians and yet just from what is on their accounts you have to question where they really are at. And then to see other professing believers that are their friends not calling them to repentance at all just adds to the condemnation of both. Matthew 7:20 "So then, you will know them by their fruits." The fruit of the world is a loose living, vulgarity, courseness, and self pleasure just to name a few. It saddens me to see people that call themselves Christians living a life of sexual sin and self pleasure and then are offended when you question if they are a Christian or not. Unfortunately the Church is not far removed from the World. WAKE UP CHURCH - We are to be diffferent, holy in ALL AREAS of our lives. A life void of obedience to Christ is a Christless life. If you are a true believer first examine your life and make sure you are not in a habitual sin and then call your professing brothers and sisters around you to repentance and holiness. Let sin be kept far from you and dont give the devil opportunity to sift you.

I hear you brother. I see people place in their info section of their FB proudly displayed the most worldly stuff as far TV shows, movies,music and so forth. When I bring it up to them whenever I see it they say that I am a legalistic. I have had one brother who is affiliated with a prominent reformed ministry declare "oh here we go with the ole your profile isn't as holy as mine". I am not looking to judge them but rather as a brother in Christ to spur them onto living a life worthy of the gospel. Keep up the good work brother.
