For many years the Christian community has been silent, and complacent, when it comes to our elected officials, our culture and our entertainment. We have allowed the media to take the place of the Word of God, and because of our mannerly behavior, and our desire not to be offensive, we have not taken a stand to do what is right for our children, community and culture. And now we are reaping the whirlwind.
Pastors, are afraid to speak up from the pulpit to deal with the issues of the day, because they fear offending some in their congregations. They don't want to seem harsh or hard, political correctness has taken over the church slowly in the from of the "Seeker Movement". Some Churches refuse to put up a cross on the outside of their building for fear they will offend someone.
We just want to have folks come and see what is going on in our Churches and then if they want, they can come and see some more. Pastors the time is short and there is no time for pretense. The Word of God is the "TRUTH" and needs to be strong in our land again, and we need to be unapologetic. Our children, our community, and our culture are in the balance, and sin is crouching at the door.
Today, Pastors I pray for you because, you will be the leaders that will take the brunt of the fury of hell when you speak the truth in love. The Word of God, the Holy Spirit, and Prayer needs to be the guiding force and power of your pulpit.
Speak boldly without fear and allow the Lord to move in your church and our families, our communities and our country will be transformed. In Jesus Name Amen.
