Apparently, the world is being darkened right now as many of those who claim the Name of Christ actually embrace the death and sin of the world. You are likely going to witness the companion increase of hatred against you (and us older believers) for continuing to call this stuff sin. Good for you for refusing the “popular” position.

If the Scriptures that claim God is managing all of this are true (and we believe they are), then we have little to fear, much to watch. We ought to be teaching the truth of His election and rescue of those whom He “...chose before the foundation of the world.” Eph. 1. to as many as will listen. The rest of the folks will not, cannot, hear you.

This is a magnificent drama unfolding before our very eyes as God displays the glory of His control and power. They do not know Who they are trifling with. The “religious” teens, like Miley Cyrus, speak without knowledge, attempting to lead others into the darkness which they themselves do not recognize, making uniformed and incorrect statements about homosexuality and sin. Watch as the world grows cold and more oppressive toward believers who refuse to join in. We may get the opportunity to march back into a coliseum.

The younger generation of Christians think that it is mature to say that they are Christian and sympathetic to say that they are tolerant. It is all about image. I know that God is in control, I'm not perfect AT ALL. But when I make mistakes I take responsibility for them and ask for forgiveness.

If God was tolerant of sin then there never would have been a need for Christ. This, my, generation doesn't understand that and one day will have to answer for their actions. Knowing that one day I will be in front of God and asked to answer for my decisions is not something that I take lightly.
