Refugee Crisis in the Church

We have come to the place where the worse thing you can do in the land of the free and home of the brave is to call sin, sin!

This mentality has also crept into the church and pastors are so afraid to let the word "sin" slip from their lips. They are afraid to mention sin specifically for fear of not being accepted and losing people along the way.

This mindset set has caused the church to take in refugees from the world -- i.e. refugees of unconverted sinners, who find their place on the praise and worship team, serve as church officers, members of various committees, and even a part of the pastor's advisory committee.

We look at our present president and conclude that he is too soft on the borders. Thousands upon thousands of illegals are pouring into this country creating more concerns, changing for the worse the morals and traditions of this country, and depleting the necessary resources need to care for our own. We even become upset because Pres. Obama refuses to identity and call terrorists, "Muslim radicals!"

Yet, this is what is precisely being done in many so-called Christians churches. Pastors and church leaders are soft on sin, fearing even to name it and calling it what it is. Thy are afraid to exercise church discipline in their churches. They are afraid to preach messages on abortion, homosexuality, adultery, drunkenness, and divorce.

As a result of not naming the enemy, pastors have allowed the church to change from being a home of redeemed saints, to a place where sinners come in as refugees and must be consoled and tolerated.

Therefore, from a social stand point, the greatest sin is to call it what it is -- sin!
