Where is the church?
As homosexuality is being embraced and glamorized on the Grammys, with TV shows like Modern Family, The Walking Dead among the top ten rated shows and movies like The Hustler and Her are nominated for Academy Awards - where is the church?
When prayer was taken out of schools we remained silent. When abortion became the law of the land, we remained silent. When homosexuality became a choice and not a sin we remained silent.
While Christianity is being marginalized in the military we remain silent. While our children are being silenced and disciplined for sharing their faith in school we remain silent. While…. the church remains silent.
“...in nothing I shall be ashamed, but with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death. For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.” Philippians 1:20-21
“…Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you more than to God, you judge. For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.” Acts 4:19-20
Where is the church? Where are you?
"Moreover... receive into your heart all My words that I speak to you, and hear with your ears. And go, get to the captives, to the children of your people, and speak to them and tell them, ‘Thus says the Lord God,’ whether they hear, or whether they refuse." Ezekiel 3:8-10 ~~~ also visit - http://timeofjacobstrouble.blogspot.com and http://salvationby.blogspot.com

First, it must be understood, "What" is the Church?

Matthew 7:13,14
Two churches indeed:
ReplyDeleteOne-the blood bought, the church, the redeemed, the second- wood,hay and stubble. Each of us must answer the question;
Where are you?
Excellent point Shannon - the visible church is quiet. The true Church of Christ must pray for boldness to proclaim the whole counsel; we must be wise as serpents and innocent as doves. We must NOT shrink back!!!
