"But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter:" Genesis 19:4
My husband and I decided to get rid of Cable. It really wasn't that hard of a decision to make, considering we only watch the News and football; football is over for the year, and we can read the News on an App.
What brought on this decision? We were tired of getting bombarded with sin. We were tired of homosexual commercials, homosexual movies and TV shows. We were tired of seeing women holding infants in their laps attending Drag shows, we were tired of hearing children going on Field Trips to Strip Clubs. We were tired of nudity, profanity and blasphemy. Sin entered our home through the TV, and we decided to kick it back out to the curb.
Extreme? We don't think so.
Years ago, people knew what sin was; they blushed, or they kept their sin secret. We are living in a different world today. Not only have people changed the definition of sin, but they also promote it.
Before God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, sin marched proudly in the city streets. At first sin was content with 'self,' then it began to grow restless, and sin began pounding on the doors of residences in the city.
My friend, we are living in those same days.
How did we get here?
It's my opinion, that while Christians decided to 'love the sinner, hate the sin' we forgot to identify the sin.
Isaiah 5:20 says, "Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; they put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!"
Christian, sin is at our door.
Have you gone out and joined them?
Or have you let them in?
Something to think about-
But that's just me!
"Our stand and witness for Christ must not be determined by what is popular or safe, but by what is right." Dr. Paul Chappell
