No doubt this sort of thing is going to happen here in America in the not too distant future. Sorry to say I believe virtually all churches and Christians will stop speaking out about sin.

No, I will simply do it somewhere else. Notice my tag line. That is a big mission field.

Within twenty years, perhaps ten.

Most stopped years ago.

...he was preaching about all forms of sexual immorality – lust, fornication and addiction to pornography.

In mu opinion, this aspect of the culture war can't be stressed enough. Homosexuality is an abomination and God justly smote Sodom and Gomorrah for their evil. But adultery, fornication and pornography are likewise vile sins displeasing to the Lord.

Makes 1776 look like a genius move. We were much smarter then.

“No doubt this sort of thing is going to happen here in America in the not too distant future.”

Yes, that’s a definite...probably during this administration, now that “same sex marriage” has a foothold. It will be one of the dividing issues between true Christians and professing Christians.

Hey, he’s witnessing to Caesar.

Whether it does good to Caesar or not is indifferent. That’s in God’s hands. But he did what God asked of him.

The ones who stopped and won’t start again will probably dissolve.

God doesn’t warn so much about sin because He is a meanie! He warns because He wants His love to work. He’s never going to endorse anything weird, never going to give His glory to another.

it’s officially on now. Denying the truth of the Bible has set the stage. Let the second coming arrive.

most already have. I walked out of a church that was running a film about homosexuals that were Christians and the pastor was embracing them gay or not.

Forgiving doesn’t mean excusing. If they’re being open and unconcerned about “gayness” then this is plain wrong. And anyhow it isn’t a matter of mere squeamishness. Sodomy is gratuitous violence.

[[[Sorry to say I believe virtually all churches and Christians will stop speaking out about sin]]]

Churches already have stopped. You rarely hear sin discussed even in supposedly hard core evangelical and “fundamentalist” churches. Sin is only mentioned in the general sense, as something vague and unpleasant that God does not like.

Pastors rarely get specific about sin. They do not do sermons about lying, stealing or fornicating, or explicitly say you are destined for @#!*% for rejecting Christ. It’s all sweet nothings.

Exactly the Liberal Christians or Christians who voted for corrupt politicians will one day have to decide which side will they lean. Will they continue to speak out about Sin or will they just quiet down and just go along?
