Sound the Alarm it's Miz D!  

Welcome to yet another Juice Radio blog entry!! Oh and we are definitely bringing it to you! Check us out Thursday, September 18^th 7:30PM. Miz D! and “Real Talk Now” will be discussing “Hiding Behind God...Fake A$$ Church Folks and Hypocrites – What is the Deal?” We will be challenging all those who claim to be good, Christian folk but are really fronting in the name of the Lord!! That is the worst type of hypocrite.

I would have to say, that in my life time most of the people who I have encountered that claim to be devote Christians – have been some of the most jealous, judgmental, uppity, standoff-ish, clique-ish, and selfish people. Now, I am not attacking Christianity or Christian people in any way, because I know there are some wonderful devote Christians, but the ones I have encountered definitely left a bad taste in my mouth. I my opinion, most are simply concerned with their own salvation. They do as they should, according to the “good book”, but as for ethics, morals, and being a good or “Christ” like person, if you will – is not a major concern. Or than you have ministers and preachers hustling the congregation, back sliding and living in excess, and dipping in and out of the beds of their church members.

I give you a personal example, one of my former colleagues who I was very close to and trusted – knew the Bible from cover to cover. She went to church and Bible study regularly. I would sometimes find myself in awe listening to her and I really respected her. Than, I started to look a little deeper, and I came to find out that she was promiscuous and married men were not off limits, she was a disloyal friend, two faced, arrogant and kept up a lot of on job gossip and rumors!! Now obviously, if she is like this on the job, than she is like this in her personal life. So I ask, “Does she not think God is aware of her actions? And does she think going to church is all that she has to do?”

Another example, I recently attended a mega church in Stone Mountain, Atlanta GA. Now I won’t mention the name, but it is pretty obvious what church I went to. One of the ministers, as she was speaking and the collection plate went around, she was discussing the upcoming Sunday’s events and continues with “….so don’t throw a measly five dollars at the man of the Lord”. I was shocked that this came out of her mouth. Oh, and the minister was the daughter of a great Civil Rights Leader.

Now, I can go on and on until I am blue in the face with examples, like the ones I have mentioned, but my point is what their deal is? When I was coming up, my grandmother loved church and would take me and my cousin on a regular basis. In addition to following God’s word, and extracting what is good and what we can apply to our lives from the Bible – I was taught to strive to be a good person. Give to others, be a friend, be loyal, embrace all people (not just church folk), show compassion and radiate good energy. These are the principles that my mother and grandmother instilled in me.

Now, I am far from perfect and I know I should go to church more often – but I am not a hypocrite. I do not fake the funk, and I strive to be a better person as I grow. The Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father I was taught about loved all, helped those who try to help themselves, and embraced all the flaws of humanity. But most church folks got their nose up, that they negate the true principles of Jesus Christ and our Heavenly Father.      

Check us out Thursday September 18^th, we will continue to rant and rave about this juicy and controversial topic! Until than…peace and take care!!

Miz D!
