Stand Up!







Stand Up!
(by R.P.Edwards)

 Standing up
Is hard to do
When used to resting
In the pew
But when the culture
Comes with sin
It's time to stand
Arise!
Begin!


Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them;
(Ephesians 5:11)


And so, World Vision, a "Christian" charitable organization, has done an about face from it's two-day policy of willingly hiring "gay" married couples. Why? Because of the outcry of the contributors who think the Biblical standard of traditional, Bible-based marriage (between a he and she) should be followed. AND...if the "Christian" organization decides to rewrite the scripture...then their money flow will go elsewhere.

And so...they turn, or should I say "return?" Sincere? Don't know. And, as the many "champions" of "true" Christianity (they think) decry the leaders who dared to take WV to task (Franklin Graham a main target) I pray that MORE pulpiteers rise to the occasion and preach the seriousness of sin...THEN followed by the remedy of the cross. Some say that this isn't "love." But real love...is grounded in truth.
