“Never let us be guilty of sacrificing any portion of truth on the altar of peace.” ― J.C. Ryle
There have been many articles written about the recently deceased pope. J.C. Ryle’s quote could have been writing about this pope, but yet his ministry was in the 1800’s! We see more compromise in the pulpit in order to have unity.
However, you can’t have unity until it is centered on God’s Word. We should be leery of preachers who are becoming wealthy at the expense of the Bible! There are red flags everywhere around us today! Auditoriums filled with thousands of people waiting to hear the next “feel good” message out of the mouths of charlatans.
It breaks my heart to see how far the church has come since the day I got saved in 1980. One can hardly recognize the sermons as being presentations of the Gospel of Christ and repentance! A person cannot detect truth in today’s modern church even if it reached out and bit them! It’s so sad. We have become a soft people that fights for everything but the truth. People need to hear about Jesus Christ and the salvation He freely offers!
Joh 17:17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.
We must remember that Germans thought if they kept silent, it would bring about peace. But instead, evil prevailed and millions were killed. Had the German churches banded together and fought, there would have been a different outcome.
“Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless.
Not to speak is to speak.
Not to act is to act.”
― Dietrich Bonhoeffer
You can try to keep the peace all you want. I pity the preachers that change God’s Word and twist Scriptures come Judgment Day. When their messages are without the truth of Jesus Christ, their hearers won’t remember what was said a day later. We are the light and the salt of the earth; we fail when we don’t share the truth of God’s Word. It is what leads to salvation. It is what will be remembered.
Salvation is a choice. Exactly what have you got to lose if you choose salvation? You will go to Heaven at the Rapture or at your death if you are saved. If you believe the lie that God would not send anyone to Hell, then you will go there. God is a righteous Judge and He will send you there, but only because it was your choice. If you want to choose salvation, please follow the link to walk you through the Scriptures on how to be saved.
