If you're ashamed of being a Christian, Jesus is ashamed of you.

Requested by Starrceline.

I can't tell you how many times people have told me that I "make them ashamed to be a Christian."
Let's ignore for the moment that the only reason they say this is because I believe and proclaim the Bible, and let's instead zero in on the "I'm ashamed to be a Christian" part.
Let's see what the Bible has to say about people being ashamed of God, His word, and being called followers of God.

Mark 8:38
"Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation;
of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels."

Luke 9:26
"For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed,
when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father's, and of the holy angels."

Yeah. Jesus doesn't take too kindly to cowards who proclaim their shame and embarrassment to be called His followers.
For the rest of us who don't want to be cowards, what instruction does the Bible have for us?

Romans 1:16
"For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation
to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek."

2 Thessalonians 3:14
"And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man,
and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed."

2 Timothy 1:8
"Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner:
but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God;"

2 Timothy 1:12
"For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed:
for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day."

1 Peter 4:16
"Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf."

Dear god, why do you think they call it "loosing the baby" when you misscarry? they dont come out and say "the organism did not recooperate".
Abortion is the removal of a Rapidly growing human being. how abou that? THAT is a true statement.
Why do murderers get charged with The Death of the baby as well when they kill a pregnant woman?

all I know is I am glad you jerk-off people are going to burn in hell. While all those children who were MURDERED before they were able to see the world will be up in heaven with the lord.

The way I see it is evolutionism is just another religion. I would say that a lot of the fossil graveyards we find are deposited by the flood. As far as God goes, I dont believe that earth or the universe we see is his only creation. He creates because its in his nature to create, just like me. I draw because its in my nature to draw. I sit back when I finish a drawing and say "it is good," sometimes, but then after a rest period I make something else. And of course it's in his nature to create, otherwise he wouldnt have done it in the first place.

After all, who can expect a creature to be more noble and altruistic than the process which created it. And if that process is the wholesale slaughter of the weak and imperfect than why should the pinnacle of that butchery be any less than a master butcher. By taking Darwinism to it's logical social extension you make genocide "the lord's work".

At any rate, in real life Evolutionism has nothing to do with genetics. It's a belief system which essentially deifies nature by attributing to it creative properties. It is nothing but a rehashing of classical pantheism but gouged in modern terms. The only difference between Evolutionism and most classical pantheistic belief systems is that evolutionism glorifies death far FAR more, but just like its ancient predecessors, it is completely unsupported by empirical studies.

I'm basically scoffing at the evolutionist idea of cavemen. I'm saying "Cavemen?! Hah! You think the Tower of Babel back there was made by cavemen?!?"

Yeah, the crazy stuff Darwin taught, huh?
