Over the years that I have attended church and from my observing the Christian life in society I have seen a move that was created by a portion of people in the Church that went about making sure that people wouldn't feel guilty about where they stood in relationship to God. Words like sin and repentance were not included in messages being delivered from the pulpit. Instead people were told that they had a "problem".
Well it is true that people do have a "problem". The problem is that for a person to enter into the Kingdom of God he or she must repent of their sin. Sin includes some of the following that churches don't like talking about including, lying, stealing, fornication, adultery and homosexuality. The Bible states that if a person is making a habit of these sins and others like them that they can't enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. There must be a change, which is what repentance is, that proves that the person no longer wants to serve these taskmasters and instead has bowed their knees to the Lord of the Universe, Jesus Christ.
Church it is time for us to get back on the message of repentance and to preach the value of the Cross of Christ. Society as we know it is sick and needs a Savior. We have the answers that they seek. Let us be bold and proclaim Him and the message of hope and reconcillation that Christ offers this world. The world is hungering for the truth. Let us go out there amongest the masses and proclaim Him for who He really is and watch as the world turns from darkness to light because we have chosen to no longer hide our light under a bushel, but proudly display it for all to see. Will you join me on this journey?
