Correct, Not Political

I was thinking while on the job today, of the messed up shape that our country is in. Not so much on the economy, but of how there is a host of people trying to be politically correct. I was also thinking of how most people really have no idea of why they are trying to be this way. I believe that most are simply doing this because someone has made it fashionable, or even more possible, because that they were told to do so and like drones they are simply following suit. I am not just speaking of those outside of the church either, I am talking about the ones that are in church every Sunday, and say that they are indeed saved.

We are a people that get caught up in the "catch phrase" society. If it sounds reasonably right then most of us jump on the band wagon, never realizing just what for. Our God expects more out of his children then what at times we are giving him. I can't tell you how many, "Christians", do not want to call sin by it's rightful name, SIN! Those that are in this attitude are tolerant of sin rather than telling people the penalty of sin. They are willing to look the other way and use the term, "we'll be praying for you", and rightfully so, but just simply praying does not cut the mustard. We know what "thus saith the Lord" on this matter of sin.

In the days of Sodom and Gomorrah it was" grievous" unto the LORD. As so should the sin of today be grievous to us as well. Gods opinion of sin has not changed. It still separates us from God. Not our salvation, but of our fellowship with him. How painful and loathsome to the Lord this attitude that some, so called Christians, have today about the very thing that the bible clearly explains will send people to hell. Have people become so immune to the fact that there is still a literal burning hell? Have they become so cold that there is no longer a burden for lost souls? God in Heaven help us if we to become so immune with such a blindness to realize that people are still dieing and going to that awful place! Matthew 9:37, "Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the laborers are few". We need to take a stand today and be correct, not political.
