Please. Stop Pretending.


We all know the sort. They love having their religious view as "Christian" on Facebook. When they're feeling good about themselves they might throw around some quasi-Christian lingo. Of course they love to get involved in some Church events to ease their conscience, but do they actually have a genuine life-changing relationship with Jesus? Do they even have an opinion of him that impacts their life in any way? 

As a former pretender, I know it's an easy ride. You take a little from one side, you take a little from the other. Maybe you even fool yourself and say that you're being cultural or missional. But you're not.

So, to all the pretenders out there, I implore you, please stop. Just make a decision. You either love Jesus, or you don't. Stop sitting on the proverbial fence. The last thing this world needs is another fake person who doesn't have genuine convictions one way or the other.

Revelation 3:16 - So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth. (ESV)

Beginnings.

Every story has a beginning.
Every movement a starting point...

Don't worry,even I'm not that pretentious. This is a test site, the outworking of a small idea that you may think is crap, but I'm looking for feedback.
If you're reading this, then chances are you've been sent a link, and if you've been sent a link you have been selected for your fine theological convictions and gentlemanly conduct to, if you'd like, contribute to this site. If you don't want to, thats fine, if you think this is the worst idea ever, thats cool, but I think this could be a good opportunity to share ideas, practice discernment, and meet other likeminded gentlemen.

So, now the fun part. If you'd like to be involved, send an email to beingreformed@gmail.com. If you think this idea sucks, send an email to beingreformed@gmail.com. If you're unsure what you think, send an email to beingreformed@blogspot.com.

Thank you men.
