The Christian Mafia-The Beginnings


Have you ever been that person that was hurt deeply by bad christians?  By bad christians (and i use "christian" loosely) I mean people within the church who did not support the Kingdom of God, but those who had their own agenda.  Their focus is not what God would want or what the bible says, but to accomplish their will and their way.  The way this manifests itself is in different ways.  Some ways I've seen this happen at a church is someone not tithing because they don't like what the pastor is doing or a staff member pitting other staff members against each other in order to step in to be the hero and receive glory for being the peacemaker. Things like these cause problems within christian communities that go against God's Word and leave a destructive path, like a tornado would, of beaten up and maybe even defeated Christians.

In class one day, after a professors lecture, some classmates and I decided on an organization that could be helpful in defeating this problem in the church.  We came up with the idea of the CHRISTIAN MAFIA due to too much influence from the Godfather movies, Soprano episodes and a desire to have license to beat people up.  The premise of this mafia group is to protect the sanctity of the church and what God had intended for it, by maybe bending the rules....a little.  "Little" is open to interpretation in what it looks like and how it plays out.  I apologize for now becoming discrete but much of what happens within this group the "Vegas Rule" is applied.  I would just like the church to know... the "REAL" church... that these "DRAGONS"  can be handled quietly, quickly and completely, so they would no longer be a problem.  It's been a great outlet for all of us to complain and to talk about how we would "handle"  some bad situations, but if one day you find a troublesome person just disappear.... I don't know what to tell you.
