Why is it that Christians, who supposedly follow the teachings of Christ, are failing to support each other when it matters most? Some believers seem to think that flashing a few hollow, spiritual-sounding reassurances is enough when in reality, these empty gestures do more harm than good. It’s time to confront this issue head-on. Christians need to step up and take actual action, not just offer lip service.
Consider the lyrics from Gary S. Paxton, a man who went from producing novelty hits to exposing hard truths about Christians’ behavior. His words echo the cries of those abandoned in their hour of need, treated worse by their own faith community than by the secular world. While the world builds each other up, many Christians seem more interested in playing the blame game, leaving those in distress hanging out to dry. It’s shameful and damaging, and it’s high time this destructive cycle stops.
Why Can't Christians Help Each Other Better? https://t.co/wUYstw4kge

The irony is staggering: the very people who proclaim to walk in Christ’s footsteps are so often the ones casting stones at their own wounded. When faced with a fellow believer’s struggle, too many offer platitudes instead of real help. Somehow, asking “How is your faith?” turns into a way to dodge doing the hard work of offering true companionship and aid. Who benefits from this aloofness but our most vocal critics? With friends like these, who needs enemies?
Now, let’s not bury our heads in the sand about mainstream media’s role in spreading lies against Christianity. Consider how these outlets jump at any chance to slam the faithful, pointing out hypocrisy without recognizing the good deeds many Christians perform daily. It’s the same media that panders to globalists who want to homogenize away religious and cultural identities. So-called journalists would rather pontificate on divisions than highlight the good Christians actually accomplish.
It’s time for a change. Instead of telling people struggling through faith-shaking moments to “find Jesus,” we should be the example of His love and support in action. Let’s dismiss the hypocrisy, embrace sincere faith, and demand a culture that reflects genuine Christian compassion, not one that shies away from the truths that confront us—and make us better. Will Christians continue to let their own flounder, or will they rise, hand-in-hand, to help those falling? The choice should be obvious.
