In our American
culture war, where have all the leaders of the Christian Church gone? You remained silent when the government
closed your doors, you were silent as the government threatened you with prosecution
or fines if you speak out from the pulpit with a political opinion. You remain silent when your people and their
belief systems are slandered by the government lefties. You remain silent as the secular culture rips
the next generation from the beliefs of you hold so dear. You remain silent as your children are being
taught to hate one another in their public schools. You remain silent as you
are told to shut up and behave as if you were dogs. Have you no inner fortitude?
I have been
away from the pew for a number of years, so I may be missing something, at
least I hope that is the case. The
challenge we all face is to be a part of a spiritual faith movement rather than
just another religion that hides when the going gets tough. Jesus confronted the powerful and ministered
to the victims of government and religious oppression. These folks to whom he ministered were the
rejects of the prevailing culture of his time.
To the rejected he preached, there is a God I call Father, my God has a
place, an eternity planned for you where the terrors of your present circumstances
will soon seem minuscule. You, the
rejected of this world, can weather all the storms of life, win or lose, because
your all-powerful God has your back!
Speaking from
the outside, please let me make one suggestion.
Every church in America should have a church school where all children
of every color and creed could be educated in a faith-based classroom. The public school that educates is no more,
it is dead! Church leaders, get off your
butt and go to work saving souls.
