defining the Christian atheist
A churched Christian atheist denies
actualized meaning and power of certain Christ's sayings by regulating them to
the ineffectual limbo of metaphor. The church is more real than Christ's
teachings and occupies a greater space in their speech. While they may profess to
believe that Christ rose from the dead among other to us miracles, they cannot
stretch that belief far enough to cover what Christ says about us. For instance,
if you believe, casting a mountain into the sea. The only conclusion one can
draw from this is that they not only do not have faith to do that, they do not
have faith to even believe Christ actually meant what he said. They then
qualify, dilute, distract, or otherwise avoid the meaning of what He said. If
someone does not believe in all of Christ's sayings, then I would call that
person a Christian, but an Christian atheist because he is more than just an
atheist, he is a luke warm Christian who Jesus said he would spew out of his
mouth. This unbelief often extends to the healing stripes of Jesus and denies
the power to believe what Jesus actually said about healing as real.
