We don’t have a skin problem, we have a sin problem. There are two kinds of people in the world – forgiven and unforgiven. Saved or not saved. Let’s reinforce this biblical perspective.

Too many Christians seem uncertain today about the authority of God’s Word. When cultural movements and secular ideas contradict what Scripture teaches, why do we often have a hard time setting ourselves apart? We want to be liked, relevant, and go with the popular flow.

The Bible calls it conforming to this world. What happened to discernment in the church?

But we know that the law is good if one uses it lawfully, 9 knowing this: that the law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and for sinners; 1 Timothy 1:8-9

Three reasons Christians are being pressured into repeating the beliefs of BLM, a neo-Marxist, collective guilt ideology that’s incompatible with the Gospel:

  1. Fear of not going along; peer pressure
  2. A misunderstanding of what they’ve signed onto
  3. An authentic conversion to the radical cause

How should Christians respond to all that’s happening in our country today? What does the Bible have to say about race, social justice, being unequally yoked with unbelievers, endorsing things that contradict Scripture? What about the lawlessness and rioting?

Everywhere Marxism has been accepted, Christians have been persecuted, sin promoted, and millions have died.
