It
is a terrible indictment that the civil message of pluralism sounds
to us “more loving and Christlike” than the once common warnings
of perdition, judgment, and divine justice. It is a frightful thing
that we are more at home with the pleasant, non-confrontational,
least common denominator messages and methodologies of our culture
than we are with the holy alarms of Scripture. It is a senseless
tragedy that we have carelessly foisted the fierce injustice of our
own recalcitrance upon a hellbound world.
~George
Grant, The Micah Mandate, from his chapter, Good News vs. Nice News
May I say Amen!
ReplyDeleteI am always hitting publish comment too soon- I wanted to add that that is the feeling today exactly. Be more loving- don't sound those Holy Alarms.
ReplyDeleteHow can people be saved if the warning doesn't warn them that salvation is needed? Thank you for posting this.
Powerful and so true!
