Hi ya'll. I see not much has changed on here.....
Curious if any have noticed the attack on Christianity increasing, such as this article points out:
http://wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=60196
We are under attack and are probably going to be ultimately prevented from defending the faith publicly, through any of the conventional medias, especially if it is construed as offensive by anyone. How soon will our pastors be muffled completely? The Word of God is becoming illegal....

"Congressmen who willfully take action during wartime that damage morale, and undermine the military are saboteurs and should be arrested, exiled or hanged."
-President Abraham Lincoln
How did Lincoln know about Murtha, Durbin and Kerry? -
So if you can't preach hate, it's persecution?
-
No. It means you can't preach against sin.
Sin is hateful to God.
Do you not believe in carrying God's message to the world? Strange view for a Christian. -
It should be pointed out that the article deals with broadcasts in Canada, not in the United States. We have the first amendment here.

From the article:
-
Dobson should just move his evil empire out of Colorado to Canada.
-
His evil empire?
Isa 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! -

MP what are Dobson's views you do not like?
What I do know of him, I seem to be in agreement with.
Reply can be very general, no need to research it. I am not going to pick it apart or even debate it, just curious. -
In this case, it's obvious that your problem is your personal animosity toward Dobson.
It is clouding your vision to the point that you state preaching against sin is the same as preaching "hate".
A very strange stance for a Christian. -
-
Better get used to a Theocracy one way or the other!
-
That's only for the post- and pre-millennialists. We amillennialists are skipping that part. :smilewinkgrin:
-
So you think. EVERY knee will bow and EVERY tongue confess Jesus Christ is Lord. Hasn't happened yet = no such thing as amillenialism.
-
-
Call it what you will.
Christ is coming in His own time. Better be ready. :jesus:
You can pre this and post this and "a" this till you're blue in the face. It won't change anything. -
Shame on Focus
"Do not fear those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul; but rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell" -Matt 10:28
We are commanded by the LORD Himself not to be afriad of the world. We should expect that the world will hate us (Jn 15:18-19, Matt 10:22) and persecute us (Jn 15:20-21). We should also expect that they will use the government, and religious bodies, to perform some of that persecution (Matt 10:16-20).
Therefore I say shame on any ministry that compromises its message in order to avoid offending the world. However it does not surprise me that the ministry started by James Dobson, Focus on The Family, is folding in the face of worldly threats. After all, Dobson has always been a bit too cozy with the world. Biblical preachers and ministries will stand for the truth no matter what it costs (life, money, fame, family, etc).
It is a shame that the church today, at least in the western world, is so weak so wimpy that the truth is compromised in order to avoid offending the world. That is truly a shame. If the world tells us that we can't call homosexuality a sin (ie...what it is) we should all stand on the street corners shouting that homosexuality is a sin. We should confront the world, not with politics and silly junk like that, but with the truth of the eternal Word of God!! It is time for the Church of the LORD Jesus Christ to stand up and tell it like it is. It is time for us to STOP being great big chickens and start preaching the truth. The world will hate us for it, but that is to be expected.
