I'm going to have to agree with aklim on this one.
Nowhere do I read that Christians are perfect. They are forgiven, but still full of defects as human beings. Christians need to be " wise as serpents". Unfortunately, too often they are eaten by serpents.
Its easy to masquerade as a Christian; its easy to pretend to be a pastor. Many independent denominations do no even have rigorous requirements for ordination, so anyone who can convince a handful of people in a chirch can be ordained.
Con men specialize in seeming sincere. Some Christians are not wise.
Reminds me of the old story about the judge, asking the convicted embezller, "Son, How could you steal like that from people who trusted you?"
The convice replied, " You Honor, that is the only way you can steal from some people"
