It is not definitively known,though often investigated, where exactly this quote originated, but no authoritative source has ever been found linking it to Gandhi.
The same supposed words of Gandhi have been repeated three times in your posted quote above, but in the opening phrase, "[I] like your Christ, but not your Christianity." - the "I" was omitted, inadvertently making the copied supposed statement incomplete...
I re-added it [in brackets] to accurately portray it as it appears online.
Below is an article that appeared in the Harvard University newspaper, "The Harvard Crimson" in 1927, suggesting that the quote was a paraphrase from Oxford's Dr. Jesse Herman Holmes (1864-1942), a Quaker philosophy professor at Swarthmore College at Oxford, 1900-1937.

"I like your Christ, but not your Christianity." In these words of Mahatma Gandhi, Dr. J.H. Holmes summed up the Indian leader's view of Christianity in a recent interview with a CRIMSON reporter. Dr. Holmes, professor of Philosophy at Swarthmore College and a member of the Society of Friends [a.k.a., Quakers], has just completed a tour around the world, during which he spent some time in India. He had several opportunities of conversing with Gandhi. He was present at the meeting of the All-Indian Congress and had the honor of being the only westerner ever allowed to speak from their platform."
Technology and science news site, Gizmodo:
https://archive.vn/nv7CEincluded this quote among other famous quotes often attributed to Gandhi, which have no evidential documentation that they were ever actually said by him.
Gizmodo traced the quote to a statement made by Indian philosopher Bara Dada, brother of Rabindranath Tagore.
The full quote from Dada is from the mid-1920s: "Jesus is ideal and wonderful, but you Christians, you are not like him."
=======================================
No, we Christians are not yet like Him; we are, however, forgiven through the grace of God, and we have His blessed promise as our assurance that we will become like Him!
1st John 3:1-3:
"Behold what manner of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God. And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know Him.
Beloved, we are now children of God, and what we will be has not yet been revealed. We know that when Christ appears, we will be like Him, for we will see Him as He is.
And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as Christ is pure."

Continuing in Gandhi's words, Dr. Holmes said, "I believe in the teachings of Christ, but you on the other side of the world do not, I read the Bible faithfully and see little in Christendom that those who profess faith pretend to see.
"The Christians above all others are seeking after wealth. Their aim is to be rich at the expense of their neighbors. They come among aliens to exploit them for their own good and c***t them to do so. Their prosperity is far more essential to them than the life, liberty, and happiness of others.”
"The Christians are the most warlike people."
