Proof that I am a Christian…
A friend just sent me an e-mail that reminded me of something that obviously we both despise.
From time to time I will get an inspirational e-mail from some well-intentioned person. It is often thought provoking and somewhat encouraging. At the end it challenges my faith by informing me that if I did not forward the email that I was not standing up for Christ.
It then encourages me to join the minority of real Christians, the 7%, who will forward the message.
I do not forward these type messages. In fact I delete everything that has FW: in the subject line unless I know the person who sent it very well.
You may question whether or not I am a real Christian. You may think I am a rebel. Come to think of it, I did buy in 2007 a solid black F-250 truck that Ford called the Outlaw.
I do stand up for Christ, but refuse to let my participation in an email campaign be the proof of it!
I hope you are one of the 93% who stand up for Christ and don’t need to forward an email to prove you are a Christian.
