^^I dont get you've overall point. What is the overall question?

Well the point was to clear up some misconceptions about why some Christ-like people feel like they can't join certain greek orgs.

So...are you just lifting up views of "other" Christians or yourself as well...are you pursuing membership into a sorority or are you trying to dissuade people from joining fraternities/sororities?

^^^Do not worry about what is on other people's plates, worry about your own...

Fred Hatchett was warned about his intimidation of several greeks on this entire GC board, hence the board owner's decision to "ban" him from any disruptive and unuseful discussion on GC...

From what I understand Fred has been on other boards acking a fool for what he his... He preaches "the love of Christ" but practices "the intolerance of others". That is not the Christ nor the Christianity I believe in or that I want to follow. He promulagates and spews out "chapter and verse of the Christian Bible", but shows no "love or compassion leading through the love of Christ". He calls himself to "rebuke sinners who are in BGLO's", but forsakes them when they need him the most, never uplifting people toward the eyes of God, as if he can...

That to me is a false prophet and you know what the Christian Bible says about that...

"The demons know about Christ, and shudder in fear..."

Read another way, the Devil knows the Christian Bible and all religious texts backwards and forwards and quote each them in their native languages chapter and verse...

The fact is it does not matter who knows more about the Bible or any religious text better than another one. It matters more with what you do with that knowledge and how it brings yours relationship closer to God as shown through what you do for your fellow man, as a Christian, your worshipfulness as a Jew, and your devotion as a Muslim...

Basically Hindis believe in a different god than Christians, Jews and Muslims... And Buddhists do not believe in a Supreme Being concept like other religions do.

The question remains, would I call all other folks who are not Christians evil? Pagans? Heathens? That is what the Christian Bible calls us to do...

Hence what Fred Hatchett is saying in his religious studies debasing Fraternities and Sororities, specifically BGLO's. His entire church is devoted to taking down BGLO's to its entirety...

I suggest that Rev. Hatchett be very careful with whom he wishes to destroy...

I believe the first statement was directed toward me, and with that I will leave that alone. FOCUS...no need to answer. I respect you for what you are doing and believe I have already stated that on another thread in this forum. Be Blessed and Stay Encouraged in your Pursuit to Pleasing God in all that You Do. May the seeds that you've planted return a harvest unto you 100-fold in the name of Jesus. Amen.

There are definitely fanatics in every religion/demonation, sect, that's why it is important to be girded and stand firm in whatever it is that you believe so that when people attack/criticize, you know beyond a shadow of a doubt, already, what it is that you believe.

You posted before I got done... I should have used the quote feature...

Quite "jumpy" are we??? ;) T'ain't that skeerioussss, yet... :cool:

I am not a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha...I am a sisterfriend

Off topic, but wow time flies. I was a senior in high school when this thread originally began, and now I'm out of college for 2 years. YAY! I have measurable accomplishments in that time frame. Ok, back to the discussion.

Im not trying to dissuade anyone. Again, I just wanted to give the thread some insight as to why some Christ-like people feel like that can't join greek orgs.

And the bottom line is that is okay. We have plenty of Christ-like, Allah-like, Buddha-like, etc. people who feel they can do both. None of us are hurting for members, so it's all good.

The proof-texters are out in force these days on GC!

For myself wanting to join a sorority for me was for community service; I never led a wild life style before or after joining a sorority and count many of my Sorors as sisters in Christ also. It is possible to be Christian and a Sorority member. It's about one's priorities-I also prayed that God's will would be done in my life as it related to my desire to be a part of my sorority. I have come across more Sorors who are Christian and some who are also Ministers that are a part of my sorority.

Mind your business
 

I remember getting numerous comments from non-greek christians who felt being in a frat or sorority was somehow "wrong". But i say this, if you are doing positive things like serving others through an organization, it does not matter if it is a greek letter organization or the urban league. Many who claim to be "christians" are not even living Christ-like and should stick to minding their own business....

Not every one who says Lord Lord will enter into heaven be- those claiming to be Christ like Christians or the true authentic Chriristian. The ultimate authority to separate the wheat from the tares is God alone. We all must be about our Father's Business

AMEN!!!
