Apologetics in the City

This sums up the motivating force of some of the most vocal folks leveraging Christianity. Meanwhile many of those who live with Jesus as Lord think silence is spiritual except when identifying the sin of the 'other' camp.

I'm noticing in the Church today people are preaching consistently and passionately … about the issues of the group they don’t like. This way racism and grievances and carnality can sneak in under the guise of righteous zeal. Paul spoke about what impacted the churches he cared about.

Biblical Christianity decides WHAT the sin is and warns that anyone who commits said sin must repent or be judged. GOP Christianity decides WHO the sinner is and is not so that even a genocide committed by the assigned non-sinner will not be judged. ~ Galatians 3.28

"Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things...and the God of peace will be with you." Philippians 4.8-9

If there ever was a time when you wondered what the term "Post-Truth" means just watch the news these days. Meta/Facebook's decision to loosen fact checking was a decision that truth no longer matters. When you run one of the biggest SOCIAL platforms on the planet you have to be a better steward.

Colleges are sounding the alarm on their students' inability to read entire books that are assigned. We as the Church need to address this as well given the issue of minimal Bible literacy and minimal Bible reading amongst believers.

What is the major challenge to the faith there?
