I’m looking around at this lost world, where I’m a 40 something woman and I’ve had a number of men, and women, in their 20’s who want to have sexual relationships with me. All of them I’ve talked to see nothing wrong with all sorts of relationships, and they all have had parents that have been barely there for them. I’m trying to be a parent to these other young people who are without any moral compass. Then there’s Family Guy, which I watched a couple of times because I heard it’s so bad. I can’t even write some of things I saw on those two shows because it’s shameful to even speak of them, as Paul wrote. And the worst ones involve the teenage characters on the show! We have all the Bibles we want in the U.S., and can worship in freedom and safety, and we WILL have to account for everything last thing the Lord has given us. Aren’t we just more than a little like the Laodicean church here? The Bible also says to remember those who are prisoners for Christ as if chained with them (Hebrews 11), and very few churches ever mention those suffering for the Lord’s Name, even though Jesus even told Saul that when He persecuted the church, He was actually persecuting Jesus Himself! And remember, too, that Jesus warned that in the last days, due to sin, “most men’s love would grow cold.” That would seem to mean love for the Lord Himself. I don’t want to come before the Lord having let my love for Him grown cold.
Not allowed in my house. :)
I don’t want to come before the Lord having let my love for Him grown cold.
Amen.
The writer agrees with what you are saying. If you get your moral compass from the culture, you have no way of knowing that the culture is going off the rails and you with it.

Good point. I have Saeed Abedini's name on my white board in front of me so that I never forget him.
