What is it about us and trying to fit it? Who said Christians are supposed to fit in?
In Acts 17:32, it says that some people flat out SNEERED at Paul and those who talked about Christ. But others of them said, “Hey dude tell me some more.”
The way I see it: This scenario wouldn’t occur very often in our own lives because we’re too scared to have somebody “sneer” at us. We’re too worried about what other people think.
Now I’m not saying for one minute that we should AIM to get people to sneer at us. But I’m saying we have to make sure that we are more concerned about pleasing God than we are about pleasing man. Kinda like this guy…
We should be like that guy NOT in the sense of, “Let’s be a Muslim.” Jesus Christ is THE ONLY way for Salvation (Acts 4:8). Maybe that video makes you uncomfortable – thats the point. We should be like that guy in the sense that he’s a great example of wanting to please God more than man.
Adam, this is totally a big concern with Christians today. I see so many people unwilling to speak up when the need arises. I am glad you are trying to spread the word
