Bible Note: A friend's response to article... Amen... We are sadly lacking in real Pastors (tenders of God's Flock) these days and the resulting in church buildings (Cribs) full of Babies in Christ, forever on milk and pablum, never growing up to maturity by eating meat... They are more like 'sleep therapists' than teachers of God's Word, who should be teaching their respective 'flocks' they have a duty and responsibility in society to MAKE A DIFFERENCE, STAND UP FOR RIGHT, TEAR DOWN EVIL, TRAMPLE UNDERFOOT EVIL DEMONIC SPIRITS... If Christians don't ______ who will? Freedom is not free and that mostly applies to our freedom to be a Christian... This country was founded on Christians who demanded freedom to worship God as they wished... We have 'example after example' in God's Holy Word of men, women and Christians who dared to make a difference in the most inconvienent of times... We can thank THEM for our freedom to have God's Word today... Are we 'salty' enough?! If not, we're no good for seasoning, no good for anything actually... 'Saltless' tasteing salt is just thrown away... Are we afraid to SPEAK UP, STAND OUT, MAKE A STATEMENT for our LORD? There ARE NO GIANTS out there!!! We fear itty bitty grasshoppers, locusts who will eat you out of house and home if allowed to multiply and invade... God's Word is like RAID is to roaches... Even a little can go a long way... Don't Christians KNOW that the 'powers that be' would like to nulify and outlaw our GOD GIVEN RIGHT TO VOTE? Are we going to just give up that RIGHT by default without a FIGHT? margie |
