I believe this is playing out in the USA today. We are a very pleasure seeking bunch. I do not say that all we seek is sinful pleasure, but we do spend much time each day satisfying the desires of the flesh. I would dare to say that the vast majority here spends more time in seeking pleasure that they do in seeking God. I hope I am wrong, but I really doubt it. We live in a generation that does not know what suffering for his namesake means. No one to my knowledge here has made it known that they are suffering for his righteousness sake. None that I know of have been put in jail for being a Christian. No tortures taking place. Lets face it. We are in a land flowing with milk and honey. And the mindset that has infiltrated the church is a mind of ease. We will only go until it begins to get uncomfortable, and there we find our line.
Just some thoughts. Maybe I am just preaching to me.  |
Dude, I already started a thread based on these verses
