They accepted Jesus once, but they don't want to study the Bible or related books to assist them. They don't desire to learn how to do some things better. They frown at having to perform research. They offer unwise counsel while doing and saying wicked things to others. These individuals are foolish Christians! Although believers in Christ, these men and women aren't the least bit interested in empowering themselves mentally, physically and spiritually against the attacks of the enemy.
We have all been played by a fool and have acted foolishly in our decision-making since walking with Christ. But once we received wisdom and knowledge about some things, our Lord expects us to grow, learn from life lessons and trials. However, so many believers don't! They lie, steal, kill, abuse, destroy, and more in the name of Jesus. They are children of darkness that say, "Lord, Lord..." but they are far from Him. Others are children of light but like a wick starting to go out on a candle, that's how they look to many observers.
Watch as well as pray when you consistently noticed a pattern of foolishness with a so-called Christian or one who sincerely believes but has a funny way of showing it. Guard your heart and don't be tempted to sin because of them. Also, do keep in mind those who are sincere believers may have chosen to walk somewhat with God, but stopped. Unwilling to do anything more, hypocrites, backsliders, and tired Christians are like abandoned vehicles left along side of freeways. The bodies of those vehicles may still be intact, but inside they are broken down, inoperable and unwilling to drive any farther.
Stay strong, my friend, keep fighting the good fight! Satan is always looking for one he can devour!
