It appears I'm late to the party. *sigh*
Weezergirl, I claim to be a Christian, yet I probably do a couple things on your list. Does that make me a hypocrite? I don't really think so, but I wouldn't argue with you if you say I am, because you will have a point. In fact, thats why a lot of my friends don't goto church, - because they see people like myself as hypocrites, and think, whats the point?
This is what they're missing. Being a Christian doesn't mean you have to be sinless, only that you follow a God that is. In fact, if I was sinless, I don't need to go to church at all - I would already be saved according to the Bible. You can draw the line or definition of a sin anywhere, drinking, sex, swearing, etc... But God draws it at the slightest mean thought, or the smalled white lie. So no matter what you consider a sin, God's standards are higher, and even a single one makes you a sinner and undeserving of being with Him in heaven. Thats why we need to be saved, according to the Bible.
A lot of Christians are indeed Christians in name only, and if those are the people you are referring to, you have a point. But a real Christian doesn't play games with God. They don't sin one day, think that as long as they repend and accept Jesus as their savior the next, its okay. Both types of Christians will commit sins each day, but the latter will make a genuine and concerted effort to recognize the sin and make amends for it. - Even if he commits it over and over again.
Weezergirl - we're all human beings, and we'll always give in to temptation, Christian or not. Christians will always fail - but the true ones will get up and try again. And as a Christian, I believe all Christians are commissioned to becoming living examples for others and to spread the word of God, np matter how many times we fail. And if you are frustrated by the Christians around you, keep in mind that they have failed you and God, but God has failed no one.
