I do believe that you will NEVER see Christ in someone who isn't a Christian. You may see what is perceived to be “good works”, but to God they are like refuse

I have seen more "refuse" in Christians then in any other faith because they pretend to be "like Christ," possessed of the Holy Spirit and what not, and being like Ann Coulter. I, certainly, do not exclude myself in that group. We all do things we preach others shouldn't!

Those who are not Chirstians are just who they are. They have no reason to be Christ-like. Christians have no excuse. But, I have not recognized Christ in 99.99% of Christians, and the 0.001% that may be, I have not met.

That is because we are STILL being sactified. None of us will achieve Christ-likeness until we ascend into heaven.

It’s just like the guy who said he didn’t attend church because of all the hypocrits there. They said, “Come on in, there’s always room for one more.”

All of us are a work in progress, yet all of us are sinners, and the worst of sinners, because we know better.
