Welcome to the World of CINO Christians in Name Only

On my Internet Christian Radio Show, A Twist of Faith, I constantly speak about phony religious leaders claiming to speak from the word of God only to recommend actions that is contrary to his teachings.  There is no greater call than to serve our God and there is no greater responsibility than that of a servant catering to and looking out for the poor, and those less fortunate.  Anyone paying even the slightest of attention knows that this is not what is happening.

These leaders have the eyes and ears of lawmakers yet help to promote or refuse to take a stand when they know that laws being passed will hurt, harm, discriminate or demote any section of beings that should always be considered God’s children too.  Religious leaders used to be more concerned with helping a sinner change his/her way through confession of their sins to God and making the necessary changes in their lives to walk the right path but not anymore.  The main thought now is getting more butts in the seats, increasing their personal wealth and moving upward in their statue.  It’s expecting that their title or wardrobe will entitle them to certain privileges that are not extended to others.  It’s the same blindness that caused Abraham’s descendants to attempt to stone Jesus and lead to his crucifixion.  These hypocrites are individuals that I deem CINOs Christians in Name only.

They talk the talk but can not walk the walk.  They scream “listen to me for I speak the words of God”  only to get those willing to listen stopping by to hear their take on the subject or a fool telling them what they wanted to hear.  They know that many of them will never refuse to just bow their heads and accept whatever they have to say and they will ride that horse until it breaks down.  They know that having that title elevates them to a level which allows them to shepherd the weak sheep and those stronger ones who stand against what they promote has to be demon-possessed.

It is imperative that all of us, who have a mind of our own, pick up that Bible and read God’s words for ourselves.  Learn from the teachings of Jesus at our own pace and in our own time.  Realize that just because you have the title does not mean you wear it well.  Accepting Jesus’ word that it’s not what goes into us that make us unclean, it’s what comes out of us.
