"All sin is sin" therefore I can live the way I want to and claim 1John 1:9...
People who claim to be believers must take note. We, the church, continue to find ways to avoid speaking truth that will change lives. Instead we have conformed to the world and adopted the very mind-set God poured his wrath upon. As long as we sit in silence and allow the agenda of a (in the words of my pastor) sickly secular society to permeate the walls of our witness, then we must accept the results of a "perpetuated lie."
I'm fearful at what God will do in the face of our continued disregard for righteousness, not "self-righteousness." Believers in Christ, as we pattern ourselves after Christ, remember Love without correction is no love at all!
Consider the openly sinful nature of man today! There appears to be no shame in our lifestyles or behaviors. We tend to take God's grace and mercy for granted! The scripture says (Rom. 6:1-2) that we should not continue in sin that grace may abound! Don't get it twisted!
Are you living a lie? This is the question I've begun asking myself daily. I want to make sure that when I say I'm saved, my lifestyle, that which others can see, demonstrates my salvation. When you say you believe in someone or something, your actions demonstrate it!
I choose not to perpetuate the LIE!
