Killing Society's Sacred Cow

You are your brothers keeper.

Galatians 6:1 ESV

"Brothers, if anyone is caught in any transgression, you who are spiritual should restore him in a spirit of gentleness. Keep watch on yourself, lest you too be tempted."

This is a simple message, but no less important. Christians reject sin. We repent of sin. We tell others the Gospel - a central component of which is to repent and accept salvation through Christ.

It is out of love that we should gently point out the sin of our brothers and sisters - not in a nagging manner, but with kindness. Repented sin is forgiven sin (Acts 3:19)!

Acts 3:19 ESV

"Repent therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be blotted out,"

This is an inconvenient truth for todays society - a society which worships self, rejects God, and promotes abhorrent behavior. Society teaches racism, hatred of our fellow man for different beliefs, promotes gender confusion and forced acceptance of LGBT 'values'. It preys on our young, those who are in schools and haven't developed critical thinking skills yet. The consequences of this will be devastating.

Believers cannot leave this unchecked. Some will go around in sheep's clothing (Matthew 7:15), and attack the church from the inside out. We MUST be accountable to others, especially in an environment where personal freedom in all areas in prized above all. 

Our faith is so important - your life depends on confessing and trusting Christ for salvation (Romans 10:9). 

People can be spiritually deceived - thinking one has lived a good life when they haven't. We must keep the faith, finish the race strong! (1 Corinthians 9:24-27).

The alternative isn't pleasant.

Cited bible verses (ESV):

Matthew 7:15 ESV

"“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves."

Romans 10:9 ESV

"because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."

1 Corinthians 9:24-27 ESV

"Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one receives the prize? So run that you may obtain it. Every athlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable. So I do not run aimlessly; I do not box as one beating the air. But I discipline my body and keep it under control, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified"
