Are personal insults an example of "christian behavior"?

Question

If no, then why are so many christians always to insulting toward anyone who doesn't agree with their dogma?


(if you need examples, see my prior questions)

Answer 1

Hmmmm....

People who say Christians don't conduct blood sacrifices have never been to a leadership meeting in an evangelical church.

Are you expecting them to treat non-Christians any better?

Answer 2

Unfortunately like any other religion, anyone can call themselves Christians, but that doesn't mean that they are acting like christians or catholics or muslims or any other number or religious sects.

A true Christian would not insult anyone. A true Christian would follow the example of Christ and strive to be like Him. We will all fall short, but we must also remember that when we insult someone, three words must be spoken, I AM SORRY.

Too many people hide behind the Bible to forgive their bad behavior. Jesus rebuked the Apostles for the same behavior.

I myself let the Bible speak for me and allow my mouth to stay shut when indoubt. I will however follow Jesus' example and defend God whenever the need arises.

Let me apologize if you have ever been insulted by a Christian and I hope that you will understand that hot chocolate made from lemons is still lemonade even if the lemons like to be called chocolate.

Answer 3

Personal insults are not an example of Christian behavior. Many people who profess to be Christian insult anyone who doesn't agree with their dogma because they are frustrated by their lack of knowledge in the Bible and what it really says. They are not really Christian.

Answer 4

i'm a christian yet do no longer % to make certain God Bless used in this way.i think of that persons who do that have been drawn faraway from being a christian for some reason or yet another.even although i do no longer comprehend the way that an Atheist thinks i could in no way say something like the above.that's a ingredient of the reason even us stable christians get a nasty call or get blamed for something. God Bless You,and that's meant in a reliable way.

Answer 5

I am a christian and I am not worthy of God's praises because I too am human. I insult, get angry, try to get even.
But the bible says all is forgiven if you truely repent.
As for being a christian...... christians are still human. God gave us these emotions for a reason. Just not to be spiteful and vendictive, I know.
Just remember one thing......... ".....he who is without sin among you,let him cast the first stone." John 8:7

Answer 6

My dogma says the the Lord Jesus Christ is your daddy. It isn't a personal insult but someone could take offense anyway. That is unfortunate. The Lord can't help it if He is your daddy.

Answer 7

that's called being human ...nothing more....every one of every religion has emotions and good days and bad and they all have to deal with obnoxious people every day and some days it is just too much and everybody says things or does things that they normally wouldn't....take this question for example ..it is meant to cause some christian to become hostile or irritated and bash you ....and all that is ..is you trying to goad someone into an emotion they may not be expressing but because you provoked them they let loose and let you have it.......we all do it ...we all have bad days

Answer 8

The guilty dogma always barks the loudest!

Answer 9

Personal insults are the result of feeling backed into a corner with no other way out than to bite the head off of someone. Happens quite a lot around here.

Answer 10

No, but, unfortunately, Christians are only lowly sinners and humans. We have the same faults as everybody else. though some of us are more immature than others.

Answer 11

Why is it you imagine it's a Christian if someone insults you? Only Christians tell others to go to Hell? OK, Drop dead. Is that better? That's non-sectarian.
