The self-righteous hypocrites who walked out of the Rhema Church in protest against Jacob Zuma's presence are a million miles away from the Christian faith.

Jesus Christ displayed love and compassion to the outcasts such as prostitutes. He told those who were about to stone a a woman: "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone." He said he was here for the "lost sheep of Israel".

To display love and compassion to your enemies is the basis of Christianity. Self-righteous hypocrites are the anti-Christ in the mould of the scribes and Pharisees in the time of Christ.
