Why Do So Many In This Country Hate Christians?

I've noticed for quite a few years now, how the news media, television and movie entertainment and a lot of the general public in this country really hate Christians. I believe this to be a fact as real as the fact racism is a deliberate and prevailing mentality in this country. The question is, why? In the last few months I been able to listen to Christians from all around this country speak about everything and everyone. Now I get it. I totally understand why so many people in this country hate Christians. Unlike racism, a case can be made that Christians have earned the hatred that is casted upon them. People of color, especially Black people just have to be born and we become a target of racism. Many Christians actually do and say things that cause people to hate them. Here's the sad part of this situation. Many Christians think the hatred of Christians, by people who aren't Christians, is like some badge of holy honor. In my opinion Christians have fallen into the trap of desiring political power. Christians do not render onto Cesar that which is Cesar's and render onto God that which is God. You can find the actual words of that in the book of Matthew 22:20-22. One can say, when Jesus showed the people the coin and asked who's picture was on it, he was saying this the stuff of man. When he talks about feeding the hungry, taking care of the widows, giving water to the thirsty, raising our children with love, and visiting the prisoners. That starts at Matthew 25:34. One can say when Jesus talked about these things, he was telling them what is of God. The answer to why so many people in this country hate Christians is because too many Christians are busy trying to attain political power and not really doing the things of Christ mentioned above. And why is this happening? Simply put, too many Christians are following charismatic preachers. There's nothing wrong with a charismatic preacher per say, except when their self-serving doctrines causes congregations to worship the preacher rather than God. What ends up happening, is the preacher then sells his congregation to the highest bidding politician. In the long run congregations lose sight of the things of God and begin to act as the judge and juror of anyone who doesn't think, believe or act as they do. If Christians aren't careful their us against the world mentality will dwindled down until churches will separate based on race and skin color. Oh wait! Churches worshiping the God of the universe are already separated by race and skin color. Man's law says I, with my black skin can live next door to you if I can afford to. God's people say, I as a Baptist live next door to a White Baptist, but I go to "First Black Baptist Church of the Risen Son" and my neighbor goes to "First White Baptist Church of the Risen Son". Didn't Jesus say something to the effect of when two or more are gathered in my name, he is there? Try Matthew 18:20. My point is this, caring too much about who goes to your church, how many people go to your church and how cool the pastor is, has replaced the bright light on the hill, of people seeing and hearing about your church feeding the hungry, taking care of the widows, giving water to the thirsty, raising our children with love, and visiting the prisoners. Politicians can't fix what is wrong in this country. And the people of this country are mad because Christians won't, haven't or can't deliver that which God has told us to deliver. It's like children who are unruly. Most of the time they want their parents to tell them what to do and mean it. Christians tell the world about a loving God, but don't show or mean it. The world should know us by our love. No one will argue and hate people who are serving their needs. Why would a person go to a church or a Christian for love when there is as much backbiting and out and out racism amongst Christians as there is in society. As Christians we should be in the world, but not of the world. We can do as the world does and add to the chaos of man. Or we can work as hard as we can to do what God says. The friction caused by going against the grain, makes a spark in the world, which in-turn becomes a light for the world. The world doesn't hate the light. The world hates the darkness posing as light. We need to stop using our light to burn down the world and use our light to show the world a way out of the darkness. But to do that, we need to truly know the direction ourselves.
