Being in college has allowed me understand that every nice person you meet isn’t always nice as they appear. They seem to be perfect and faultless, when you actuality they are human, like we all are and make mistakes. After that being said, I would like to say that I view myself as being a person growing into the Christian walk of life, and I know I sin and make mistakes concerning my religion everyday, however I understand that God is the only one that can judge my decisions and actions. This brings to me to the topic which has affected my spirit concerning my religious beliefs and being apart of a sorority in college, which I thought was completely plausible in God’s eyes. However I guess my thoughts were incorrect according the Divine Three.
The Divine Three is a ministry started by three African American students who attend the University. They have online videos of sermons where they preach or in my opinion bash college experience through misuse of God's word. In a way I think the original idea of starting ministry is sounds perfectly fine, however I only believe it can be successful to those who have good intentions. The three people behind the organization have caused a buzz around campus and an article was written in the Cavalier Daily about their views of fraternity and sorority life and how it is connected to the workings of the devil. The article was written in yesterday’s newspaper, entitled, “Who’s playing devil’s advocate?” by Stephanie Waities. In my opinion they slander something that they nothing about, being that neither of them have when apart of Greek Life, here or anywhere for that matter. How can somebody can speak on issues, which they haven’t personally experienced? It’s borderline hypocrisy. A quote from the clips is “These people going into these sororities and fraternities, are pledging their all to them. And they still think that they are Christians. Pledging your all to something that is not God and God alone, is tantamount to taking up arms with the Devil.” This line makes me angry and sort of sorry for them to believe that God ordained them to judgers of other people. I thought Christians were supposed to non-judgmental towards one another and to offer advice without bashing opinions and decisions.
