Look the Other Way
I saw today a post where someone had put the words:
“as a Christian I would never enforce my view on anyone”
I could hardly believe my eyes - is this why so many professing Christians are unwilling to stand up and say no to abortion or the re-definition of marriage?
If I were walking down the park and saw a group of boys throwing stones at a Magpie, using a stick to stab a cute kitten, throwing acid at a dog or using a crossbow to shoot a Kangaroo - should I walk or look away?
What if a group of men come to try to rape my wife - should I not enforce my will, my opinion, my belief that ‘rape is wrong’, that ‘my wife should be defended’? Should I sit back passively and model a more loving, nicer way to live - a more tolerant ‘religion’ and share my love with these men when they are finished?
How absurd! Unfortunately, many liberal churches and christians are falling into this culture trap - and many have already a suffered because of the consequences. We have videos, games and media that display what was (and should be) classed as pornographic and unthinkable, but now normal on bus stops, in games and on prime time TV. Computer games where theft and killing are the main aim and constant programs that mock Christians / Christian values, but play political correctness to all others....
