To think and know it is actually the other way around. Thank God we had the bible to forewarn us of this flipping of realities.
What “society?” Without Christianity there would be no Western Civilization, THAT is society.
That’s the problem, though, isn’t it? Western Civilization.
Over here
But catering to Islam in the work place is OK.
That's okay though - we are supposed to be a peculiar people.
“Churchgoers are now “counter-cultural” because their values are so opposed to prevailing behaviour, claimed Dr Sentamu”
A true point, but the msm hack uses “Churchgoer” as s synonym for “Christian”, which is wrong
INCREDIBLE.
GOD HAVE MERCY ON US.
Glad you are discerning these days we are living in. There are so many here on FR who seem to think that we’re just in a cycle, or everthing will return to “normal” eventually.
“now “counter-cultural” because their values are so opposed to prevailing behaviour”
This is true, and for good reason.
As Christians, we are not of this world.
but Muslims are perfectly normal?
don’t forget the school headmistress who was forced to resign because of Muslim pressure against her
“but Muslims are perfectly normal?”
it’s an interesting thing. they’ll accept any crazy behavior in people they perceive as “minorities” eg blacks raping 14 year old girls, strange behaviour from asians, whatever, “it’s their culture”, but when it’s someone like them, they have huge expectations of whatever they perceive as normity
2 Thessalonians 2:3
“Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away (apostasy) first...”
II Thessalonians 2:3-4 NKJV
Let no one deceive you by any means, for that Day will not come unless the falling away, (apostasy-NASB), comes first, and the man of sin, (man of lawlessness - NASB), is revealed, the son of perdition, (son of destruction -NASB)
who opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, displaying himself as being God”.
Exacty right!
1 Corinthians 22 For indeed Jews ask for signs and Greeks search for wisdom; 23 but we preach Christ crucified, to Jews a stumbling block and to Gentiles foolishness, 24 but to those who are the called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. 25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
GMTA
A stumbling block to the Jews and foolishness to the Gentiles, as Paul of Tarsus once said.
Exactly...this should be no surprise to Christians. In a short time Christians will actually be jailed for their beliefs.
It’s coming, so prepare. Within twenty years.
“II Thessalonians 2:3-4 NKJV
Let no one deceive you by any means, for that Day will not come unless the falling away, (apostasy-NASB), comes first, and the man of sin, (man of lawlessness - NASB), is revealed, the son of perdition, (son of destruction -NASB)
who opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, displaying himself as being God.”
Scriptural prophesies are now almost being fulfilled on a daily basis these days. The Apostle Paul knew exactly what he was writing about.
