I am a Christian.
My mom is also a pastor.
She respects and supports my Sorority and trusted me enough to know that I would not have put myself in a situation to compromise myself as a Believer or as a Black Queen.
I think when people put themselves in situations where they are in predicaments that devalue themselves as Temples of God is what may be unChristlike. However, we all fall short from the glory of God and that has nothing to do with greekdom. Being a member of a bglo and becoming a member of bglo we are tested and we grow. That does not conflict the Christian faith. The best test is to go by your moral convictions and your heart. If you are saved, you know what I'm taking about. Being a Christian is not just about reading the Bible and acting "good." It is about followign God's will, having a relationship with Christ, growing in the Spirit.
If a sorority is hindering that, it is not the sorority that is doing that. It is the person. It's kind of like, when you make an idol out of something. But this just doesn't happen with a sorority, it could be a car, money, a house, or even your spouse or your kids.
Just don't put things or people in front of God. Remember what your purpose is here on this Earth. What we do for Christ is what matters. Everything else is in the meanwhile. We are here for but a short time. Being good doesn't save us.
My sorority is not a religion. My sorority is a family that I am a part of in which I cherish the traditions, rites, history, and legacy. I consider it to be yet another blessing. I lOVE IT , i love it, i love it!
Koss28: Christians do not just merely "intrepret the Bible" We follow and adhere to the Spirit. Andthere is no confusion in the Spirit.
