Typical believers spend far more of their "spare" time watching T.V. & videos, and reading magazines & books than they do serving Jesus. Their struggles with personal sin are the primary focus of their thought life, and their conversation reflects what is in their hearts...themselves! Just listen to the average believer talk; his/her favorite word is almost always, "I" or "Me". Satan has effectively crippled their ability to step outside of themselves to reach out to the lost and the hurting. They are so busy worrying about themselves they excuse their deception saying, "When I get my life together, or when I know the Bible better, then I can help others." Excuses abound, and they are embarrassed to even share their life or their faith with a stranger. It's easier for Christians to sit around like a bunch of old hens and talk about how bad the world is getting, and how evil different segments of society are. God forbid that they should ever get off their rear ends and do something to help those people they so dearly love to judge and criticize!
