MODERN CHRISTIANITY?

It’s no secret to most of us that morality in America, as well as abroad, is eroding. We live in a day and age when morality has become relative, nobility is most often found in fictional stories, and virtue-less people consider righteous standards as religious oppression. Beyond that, people who don’t even believe in God, much less the Bible, use verses like “judge not lest you be judged” and “Jesus didn’t condemn sinners” to neutralize noble living and moral teaching; they use the Word of God against us in order to shape the culture that our children will one day inherit. What’s even more concerning to me than that is how Christian leaders are allowing these unbelievers to dictate how to interpret the Bible. Modern Christianity has become more about sanctioning sin and calling it unity than it is about God or His kingdom. God forbid someone ever feel the presence of conviction and experience the uncomfortable tension that comes with the weight of sin.

The truth is that the morals of any society are not determined only by right and wrong; instead, they are often established by courageous people who brave the backlash of public opinion and forge new “norms.” If you’ve noticed, cowards are always the first to surrender their souls to a shouting society, the sympathetic follow their suit, and then the politicians. Intellectuals tend to follow close behind as they exchange the reasonable for the ridiculous and rationalize until facts become fables. I’m curious, where are you in all of this? When are the true Believers going to step out of the crowd of cowards and pioneer a path forward with divine wisdom, supernatural strategies, and offer the world transformative love that actually does conquer a multitude of sin? 
For any that may have blurred perspectives on what sin is and what love isn’t, allow me to wipe away the politically correct grime from your “love everyone” glasses and ask you to consider this:
