Again, I would have to agree with you. We live in such a pc world that I am often times castigated for using terminology that the Prophets of old would used frequently. They used such harsh language to drive the point home of how God saw their iniquities. However, so many today get upset when you use the original word for a donkey let alone the true description of the way God saw their unrighteous, self righteous works.
Get angry at sin, and you are accused of not loving your neighbor. Call sin, sin and you are called judgmental. compare false teachings to the works of Satan, and you are called legalistic. And this all by so called religious Christians who would rather not be judged.
I can write an apologetically laden message about any of a dozen topics and thousands will read my article. I write a devotional message that uplifts the soul and teaches God's precepts and maybe a few hundred will spend the time it takes to read it. We live in times similar to what Isaiah and Jeremiah likened to the days of Sodom and Gomorrah. The question is, can we stand in the face of evil and apathy that as they did and continue to tell the truth? Regardless of the damage our character will take in the eyes of the world, like Jeremiah, Isaiah and other Prophets of old did, we too must stand tall.
I care for the sadness I notice see in my wife's eyes, when she sees the attacks I take from secular Christians. Attacks that come when I speak the truth's of God's Words. However, God does want His message heard, so I must balance the pc worlds expectations with God's. It and it is a fine line, and while it is a line I will always balance in the favor of God, it is a line never the less.
Please allow me to seriously inquire of these scriptures:
John.8
[1] Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.
[2] And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.
[3] And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,
[4] They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
[5] Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
[6] This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.
[7] So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
[8] And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
[9] And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
[10] When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
[11] She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
He instructed her to do what is not possible on the face of it. Could it be that there is another teaching in the words of these scriptures? I have my own thoughts and am curious as to the thoughts of others that surely walk closer to the Lord than I.
