There is one thing that that I have learned that a person that wears their religion on their sleeve is a christian that will screw you in a heartbeat. I guess that is because they are forgiven. How many others have found this to be true.
Time and time again. That is why I will never buy from or engage with a business or individual that advertises 'Christian run business'. It's like a con man saying 'trust me'.
I have been a bit rescued from this for about ten years as I came to live in sheltered accommodation Due to ageing and mental health worries) Its quite hard to actually get in to the building if you don't have a key so we aren't really bothered . People in here have different religions Northern Ireland is - either /or and I am living in a Catholic region. Most people keep it to themselves and there is a culture of getting on with neighbours as we need each other.
The only thing that will give Christian drum-beaters and braggarts pause is if it affects their pocketbooks: Christians that put religious symbols in their advertising do -NOT- receive my business, so they will have zero - zip - nada - nil - no opportunities to screw me over.
Their religion is based around the perfect scapegoat---Satan--I was raised in a very conservative church. They taught that if you weren't miserable and sinning you weren't close to god because Satan wasn't tempting and controlling you. Makes no sense--they fully believed that you could do anything you wanted to and be blessed for it because the worse you did, the more satan was after you because you were so close to god---geez--makes my brain hurt.
Absolutely true. Ive found if they tell you they are a Christian, beware! If they are really Christian they are supposed to show you with their deeds and acts. When they tell you it's like they are just into the 'I'll ask for forgiveness' part later after I screw them.
