I have been trying to weed it out of my life for the past five years or so, but sometimes it still creeps back in. But every once in a while, I listen to other Christians talk and the amount of jargon and lingo we sometimes use is amazing! It sometimes sounds like gibberish, and honestly, if you really listen, they are not saying much of anything at all.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-17710\" alt=\"Christian jargon\" src=\"https:\/\/redeeminggod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/christian-jargon.jpg\" width=\"170\" height=\"170\" srcset=\"https:\/\/redeeminggod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/christian-jargon.jpg 170w, https:\/\/redeeminggod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/christian-jargon-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 170px) 100vw, 170px\" \/>It is not at all uncommon to hear Christians have conversations like this:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;God bless you, Man!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;God bless you, too! How&#8217;s your walk?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Still stugglin&#8217; with the flesh, but there is victory in Jesus, praise God.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Well, just keep walkin&#8217; by faith and not by sight.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yep, and I&#8217;m stayin&#8217; in the Word.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Oh, that speaks to my heart. I know it&#8217;s been a battle.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yeah, but your accountability has been such a blessing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Give Him the glory, man.
