"So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed." John 8.36
It pains me to see Churches all over the world being more judgemental and religious than the rest of the world. The Church abolishes slavery with its right hand and yet with its left puts shackles on the rest of the world to walk their walk and talk their talk. It tells Rockers to not where black and shuns the electric guitar. The church of today have lost the very essence of the way it was set up...
It was set up as a rogue group of dedicated people fighting injustice and meeting in random peoples upper rooms. It was set up with open doors and non-judging eyes. It was set up Illegally when the punishment for this sort of thing was DEATH.
And yet now, you get some guy standing at the front of a cold and lifeless room wearing a dress and telling people to repent from listening to Queen!?!?! There are bigger things to worry about and quite frankly i believe the constant bombardment of judgement by some churches is the reason why the Western Church is shrinking.
Those who are free in Christ are free indeed.
Free to listen to rock music
Free to where skinny jeans
Free to dance like a crazy looney at disco's
I believe its actually good not to conform with christian fashion sense and wear silly sandle socks and have Vicar cuts... I mean who else in the world has Vicar hair cuts than Vicars?!? how is having a Vicar cut gunna be any better at trying to reach the least and the lost. It may actually send anyone who sees them running to the hills to escape the interigation of getting cornered and prosecuted. Sorry, this isn't supposed to be judgemental or harmfull, it is supposed to be the opposite.

I can still remember when my friend matt basically lost his faith partly because he was told by somebody not to where goth black or listen to electric guitars in our Church so he left and now has an antichurch and antiGod view. Sad.
It is not our place to judge, we as a Church should aim to be as encouraging as possible, building people into the character of Jesus, Not Destroying people.
God = Creator - Good
Satan=Destroyer - Bad
Be Christ to the world
