We who preach the gospel must not think of ourselves as public relations agents sent to establish good will between Christ and the world. We must not imagine ourselves commissioned to make Christ acceptable to big business, the press, the world of sports or modern education. We are not diplomats but prophets, and our message is not a compromise but an ultimatum. A.W. Tozer
Therefore let God-inspired Scripture decide between us; and on whichever side be found doctrines in harmony with the word of God, in favor of that side will be cast the vote of truth. --Basil of Caesarea
Once you learn to discern, there's no going back. You will begin to spot the lie everywhere it appears.

I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has strengthened me, because He considered me faithful, putting me into service. 1 Timothy 1:12

When Christianity Joins the World


Those who have less regard for historic Christianity virtually make the bed the altar of their new religion. Chastity is considered no more a virtue than malnutrition, and sexual intercourse is presented as the healthiest of “human sport” to which children should be early introduced. Those of more Christian commitment introduce “love” as the deciding factor, yet insist that this principle must find its application in each particular “situation.” Fornication is then allowed as an act of Christian charity, and adultery a sacrament of divine healing.
