Sometimes i wonder if we the present Christians would have been able to generate the name CHRISTIAN if apostle paul and the rest were not given the name by the unbelievers. its so sad how we do things now.
these few things i see we Christians do now and dont consider it sin anymore, there are like normal things now, but it does not change God 's standard anyway.
1. NOT LOVING EACH OTHER AS WE ARE MEANT TO
The message of 'love your neighbour as you love yourself' is going into extinction. we no longer love. even right there in church, we don't show love. its so sad how many drive big cars with empty seats from church home after services without giving someone going to the same street a ride. you saw your neighbour standing on the road looking for taxi, yet you see no reason to stop and give him/her a ride. I know if Jesus was in that your car, he would love to give everyone a ride home. so, you that cant help someone, who is your mentor sir/ma?
2. SAYING WHAT YOU DONT MEAN (LIES)
often times we give promises we know we are not going to keep. you know you cant keep it, yet you go around telling him/her you love. you know you cant help get him/her a job, yet you collected his/her Cv, kept it under your bed and keep promising each time he/sh calls. you know you dont mean it, yet you keep giving your word. its sad
3. PRE-MARITAL SEX
The fact that we are in modern age does not change God's standard of operation. the wages of sin is still death. no wonder so many pains and death in marriages today because of disobedient. God still judge those who defile marriage bed. its meant to be honourable. scientific analysis, philosophic reasoning, modern ways of analyzing things can not Change God's word
4. TAKING OF BRIBE
Christians now give and accept bribe to get job, contract, promotion and all that. Ex. 23:8
people gladly give bribe to get a job then come for testimony in church and see nothing wrong with it at all. they latter crown it with giving of tithes, first fruit offerings and all that. its sad
5. USING STRONG HEART IN DEALING WITH PEOPLE
I know of an uncle who is an active deacon in church. he easily write relatives off his list when they do wrong. he can never forgive. no matter how you apologies. and when he does that even if you die, he will never come for your funeral services.
alot of Christians are too heart hearted. you cant change them. dealing with people without mercy. the bible say Jesus was moved with compassion when he saw the people going in a wrong direction. what about us, why are Jesus features missing in us, yet we claim we love Jesus?
you are free to add yours. things Christians do now that we dont consider it sin anymore.

Any true christian will not do the listed items above and still think he has not sinned...

Even the un believers knows the listed items above is a sin.

^^
Yo dead wrong, most bible-totting tongue-twisting later day christians of nowadays dont give a fvck about the above mentioned.

they are not Christians!
Christian means the way of Christ or Christ like!
As far ♈όϋ no longer have the nature as Christ, ♈όϋ are no longer a Christian!

@ OP, I agree with everything you mentioned except for #3. Religion defined it what it is not. We can learn together. But first, cast your mind away that I justify immoral and reckless living. Far from it but let us examine scriptures together in context. You're invited to this on-going discussion on 2 threads here or there:

Please, be open minded like the Bereans.

Hmmm. To be honest, I am guilty of the CV stuff. God help me.

I am highly guilty of 2 and 3 .... but 3 I cant do without. let's tell ourselves the truth

He was right.

Carrying bible............

Sleeping in church.

And

Speaking 66 languages in ten minutes are not what makes one a Christian.

If you don't love God with all your heart, hate sin, and love your neighbours as yourself then Christ has no place in you.

It is not going to church that makes one a Christian.

It is the Christ-like nature of that person that makes him/her a Christian

You're right, God bless u! May God help us and give us the grace to stay away from those.

No 3, though a common practice, is still bad sir, and can't be justified.

You see my sister, the problem isn't what I teach. The problem is, people had been fed with some kind of teaching and when another person saying something different, they think it's heresy. Please, be open mind AND GO AND FIND OUT BY YOURSELF USING BIBLE CONCORDANCE TO FINISHED OUT WHAT FORNICATION MEANT. It was hard for me too to first accept it but I went study on the subject, I'm not trying to justify immorality, GOD Is MY witness.
