Many will say

Many will say
Jesus said,
“Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’  
Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’”Matthew 7:22,23.
Mahatma Gandhi said,

“Jesus is ideal and wonderful, 

but you Christians - 

you are not like him.”

                                              Mahatma Gandhi.

When it comes to many who call themselves Christians Gandhi is right. Many calling themselves Christians are not like Christ. They are not even Christian.
A true Christian is someone who is doing their best to put the teachings of Christ into action in their life and lifestyle. Teachings summed up by Jesus who said,
“So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets” Matthew 7:12.
For a true Christian Love is the motivating factor in their life. The apostle Paul defining love as,

“Love is patient, love is kind. 

It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.  

It is not rude, it is not self-seeking,

 it is not easily angered, 

it keeps no record of wrongs. 

Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.  

It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 

Love never fails....

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. 

But the greatest of these is love.”  

                                                        1 Corinthians 13:4-8a,13.

A true Christian remembers why Christ came into this world Jesus saying,
“For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him." John 3:17.
Something we can only do by showing God’s love to all people.
Martin Luther King jr. the great American civil rights leader said,

“Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into friend.”

                                                                                    Martin Luther King, Jr.

Thus I would ask anyone who claims to be a Christian, Are you showing the love of God to those around you?
Please think about it.
