Why Do Some Christians Look Like They're Not?

Christians are accused of being hypocrites by unbelievers. Some say that is it still relevan to apply Christian’s Law in such as world? Life had been changing, everything’s unpredictable. Some People who claim them as christians has no differences with others who’s not. Why ?  

Mart De Haan gives ten answers to this charge in his pamphelt Ten Reasons To Believe Christians Can Look Like They're Not.

Disappointment with God.
Some people who claim to be Christians are impostors. The Bible does not hide the fact that real people faith have also been  disappointed with God. Many examples had been happened.

 

Distraction
Under pressure, even in times of prosperity, Christians can be distracted from the confidence that their ultimate well-being lies in the hands of God. Many attemptions in many way always surround Christian. That's why Bible tells us to keep on renewing our minds.
 

Dangerous Relationship 

Paul wrote, "Do not be misled : 'Bad company corrupts good character". Being a "friend of sinners" does not not mean being a sinner. Christians have to make a relationship with others. It’s a Christian’s duty to bring a sinner to God, but sometimes the opposites happened. So, Christians have to be equipped with “God weapons”. 

Unchanged Tendencies

Genuine Christians make delicious of faith that signal a change in their thinking. But many still have not overcome the struggle with self-centeredness. The battle with self continues.
 

Self-reliance. 

God asks His people to trust Him on His terms rather than their own. It takes some Christians a while to obey that command. Many “battles” in mind when somebody asked to obey Him. Even the apostle Peter had trouble.

Prayerlessness.  

Christian look-alikes have a reputation for being hypocritical in their prayers. People of genuine faith use prayer correctly, without drawing attention to themselves. Christians have an example for prayer in Bible.

Carelessness.
King David was a man after God's own heart. Even so, through carelessness he became adulterer and a murderer. Carelessness made Saul and others became sinner too

An Unexamined Heart
Jesus reminded us that unexamined motives can result in complicated forms of self-deception.

An Unseen Enemy 

The people of Christ have unseen enemy who is attempting to confuse the and neutralize their impact. This adversary is fighting a war of attrition. There are many casualties.

A Lack of Accountability 

Even the strongest Christians were never meant to go it alone. Believers who refuse to see themselves as part of body leave 

themselves unprotected and without accountability.
