Undercover Christians

For whoever is ashamed of Me and of My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels.”  Mark 8: 38 HCSB

Have you ever heard of an Undercover Christian? You say what do you mean. You know the person who shows up on Sunday mornings and looks the part but on Monday your not real sure they are the part. I am not saying they aren’t saved, because only God can make that judgment. You see our society celebrates the fact that others stand up for what they believe. After all Muslims can protest and call for their customs to be pushed upon Americans. There are people who have decided that standing on the flag is better than letting it fly above them. (Although that is supposed to be illegal) If you are an Atheist it is ok for you to make that known in school and even teach our youth about it. But if you are a believer in Christ, it is wrong for you to stand up for what you believe. This attitude in society has created the Undercover Christian movement. Instead of standing up for what God has said they tend to keep their mouths shut. We even find that many Christians have even begun to bend or sway on what God says. You see I have said this a hundred times my opinion doesn’t matter it is what God says that matters. It is my responsibility to stand up for what God has said. I don’t have to be mean and rude about it.  You see when we keep our mouth shut for sake of unity or social acceptance we are really just slapping God in the face. I agree that when you begin to stand for what God says that your family, friends and even strangers won’t like it. The question is whom are we trying to please? You will have to answer that question for yourselves. Let me say that when you stand with God your on the winning side. Do yourself a favor and don’t be an Undercover Christian. The reason I say that is, you may be so undercover that Jesus won’t recognize you as a Christian.
