To all:
Look at the young people in your church.
Do they look worldly and aloof?
If so there is a serious and possibly fatal spiritual problem in your church.
I thank G-d that He is concerned with my inner most being instead of my outer shell. The problem with too many Christians is that they think they are better than non-Christians... this is based on what? But for the Blood of Jesus we would all be as sinful as non-believers. But He is our rightousness. In order to reach young people, you have to be approachable and able to relate to them on some level. I believe in modesty and decorum, there is a time a place for everthing, but just because I don't wear dresses down to my ankles and I like big flashy earrings, doesn't mean that G-d will reject me. I could have blue hair and a nose ring and G-d will accept me into heaven as long as I have accepted and worshipped through Jesus.
Thanks for an excellent observation.
