Random Thoughts (#019)

So, as can be seen over the past decade or two, moral decline has moved from individual personal choices to overall political agendas and now borders on becoming law. (In some cases already passed as law.)

That which once framed and supported the house (in the same way Biblical values once upheld society) has been weakened and knocked down to a point where a new framework (a new value system) can be implemented. Metaphors aside, I'm talking about how agendas such as the "gay agenda" or the "keep God out of school agenda" are not just attempting to make a way for themselves any longer, but instead are pressing the morality of good and truth away from reach. Talk has even come about making certain Christian practices illegal in some countries. Sadly, those crying out for equality, truth, and "open-mindedness" are leading the charge to cut God out of society.

So in all this the question presents itself; “If you were arrested for being a Christian, how much evidence would there be against you?” I take this question to exclude personal testimony, meaning you can't just say you are and admit to it. Instead, what evidence would be there to use as proof you are a follower of Christ? An awesome question and one that we should each take the time to answer honestly and fairly. It should paint a vivid picture of just how much we are followers of Christ, or not.

Just a passing thought.
