"Nope most Christians have not given up."

I strongly disagree. Probably 50% of Christians are totally on-board with the Grammy awards and all other manifestations of contemporary "culture." Another 10-20% are a bit out of touch with it, but don't take it seriously. Probably only about a third of professing Christians were really offended by the Grammy's tonight.

I watched Alaska the Last Frontier last night. So did my wife for that matter. I gave up on big four network TV 20 years ago after I got C-Band then later Direct TV. I'll watch reruns of Duck Dynasty before I'll tune into major network shows. I can find plenty of older shows to watch and have a decent video library as well. I don't watch The Grammy's because for years it's been trash and nothing more much like The Super Bowl and other staged events. I take it seriously I just don't watch it.

BTW nothing makes me angrier than being in a waiting room where some office worker has Ellen on the TV. I've seen channels get changed by those sitting in waiting rooms to another station minus Ellen.

From Matthew 7:

21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Many people in this country self-identify as Christian but they don’t know the Master. Many of them couldn’t even explain the gospel. Those truly born again are standing strong and they will continue to stand strong. What has happened is actually a return to an historic norm. Most throughout human history have not lived in a society that was as safe and comfortable for Christians as the United States was for the first 225 years of our history.

I’m really hard on pastors, popes, and the many silly trends within the church world because I can’t stand the thought of anyone believing he is saved when, based on God’s Word, he is not. Most religion is false religion.
