Have you ever…

Gave a present to someone and not secret wonder if they were going to give you something in return?

Told someone about Christ, not to look good, but because you really wanted to help them understand?

Told someone what the meaning of CHRISTmas was, and really meant everything you said?

I mean, I’m sure everyone has done these at least once, but, nearly everyone has also NOT done this.
They’ve given someone a present and secretly hoped or been curious about what they will get in return, and didn’t just give it out of the goodness of their heart.
Or told someone about Christ just to look good.
My point is…
Will we ever get to a point where we’re not afraid to stand up for what we believe? Not because it makes us look good, but because it’s God’s will?

You mean like with Muslim suicide bombers?

I’m not afraid to stand up for what I believe in. Not at all.

No offense to the poster. I’m sure you were referring to Christian ideals there, but these terrorists are doing what so many others fear to do. Follow their god’s will.
I don’t support or even remotely admire what they do. In fact, I find it abhorrent.
I just wanted to make a point. :)

Well, christians have taken a bashing on here the last couple of days. I didn’t want my name added to that list.
I just want to get along. :)

Yep, same here. I see no need for all the arguments, especially since this is a help site.
