Some men's hypocrisy has no bounds
I have a perfect example of American Christianity™, Hobby Lobby President Steve Green has planned to open a "Bible museum" with a price tag of 400 million, http://www.relevantmagazine.com/slices/400-million-museum-bible-now-under-construction-washington-dc. This is the company that sells Chinese made trinkets that are of no real value to millions of Christians and spiritualists.
They also were engaged in litigation regarding "birth control" in their government required healthcare programs. Now it's already been pointed out China's horrific human rights record, as well as their forced abortion record, and it seemed at the time quite hypocritical of Hobby Lobby, to have such a stance when they send m[b]illions into China's economy, but of course American Christians™ don't care about facts when they are screaming of their imaginary persecution, so American Christians™ defended Hobby Lobby.
But with this new action by their president I just have to point out their hypocrisy again. This man is supposed to be a Christ follower, but instead of helping those in the city this museum will be built with a large sum like 400 million, which could make a difference in so many people's lives and really show them the love of God, he builds a stupid building of no real use.
This is absolutely ridiculous and shows the true colors of many that call themselves followers of Christ. These same people will legalistically force people into the incorrect teaching of a tithe as they celebrate this man wasting hundreds of millions. I know exactly what type of people Jesus was speaking to when He spoke these words:
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! You pay a tenth of mint, dill, and cumin, yet you have neglected the more important matters of the law—justice, mercy, and faith. These things should have been done without neglecting the others. Blind guides! You strain out a gnat, yet gulp down a camel!
“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! You clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence! Blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of the cup, so the outside of it may also become clean.
“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which appear beautiful on the outside, but inside are full of dead men’s bones and every impurity. In the same way, on the outside you seem righteous to people, but inside you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.
“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! You build the tombs of the prophets and decorate the monuments of the righteous,
