The Abusive Church

Lee Renard Caspian

Christianity is not a stick with which to beat other Humans

Christianity is not way to elevate yourself over others

Christianity is not something you get to brag over

Christianity is not a chore or task to be done

Christianity is not something that can ever be understood

Christianity is not something to be attained

Christianity is not a tool for oppression

Christianity is not finding perfection of action

 

Christianity is a way to love every Person we see

Christianity is a gift given to the undeserving

Christianity is living in peace and hope

Christianity is about trusting in what we don’t comprehend

Christianity is elevating others before yourself

Christianity is about living each moment for God

Christianity is about beauty in brokenness

Christianity is a relationship to simply live into

      Very good write, the last stanza tells it how it should be but there are some who behave like the first stanza - is that Christianity - I don't think so. Forgive all.

      • Lee Renard Caspian

        Exactly! I just wish people would realize that you can't love people by beating them over the head with the bible.

          Very true Lee, some just do not see that.
