Enough already. There is no misunderstanding a person who “kind of likes Jesus,” or has “a little positive feelings about Jesus” or the Bible, and they claim to identify as Christian while also identifying as homosexual or transgender, bisexual or lesbian. Who also don’t have a moral grasp of the sanctity of life or any morality.

Enough of this bowing to, coddling, making excuses for, worshipping of Gen Z, Gen X, and Millenials already. Contrary to a new book coming out, written by the president of Oral Roberts University, Dr. Billy Wilson,  Gen Z is not going to become the greatest generation that has ever lived. And this book was written by a professed Christian.

Enough already.

Stop making excuses. Stop living in delusion.

It is all black and white.

READ THIS: Climate change is a real problem

AND THIS: What’s wrong with the Bible?

And the Word of God, God Himself, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit are unchangeable. The Bible nor the Triune God bow to and acquiesce to the modern-day teachings, practices, ways, and doctrines of lost, sinful fallen, and corrupt man. And this includes any and all professing to be “Christian” that do not understand or obey the Word of God.

We do no one any good whatsoever to appease them, coddle them, idolize them [and children of the past 40 plus years, 60 years have been idolized and allowed to rule rather than parents knowing the word and instilling the word into their children — thus the so-called “culture” and world we presently have].

No one can approve of the premeditated murder of children, profess to be a practicing homosexual, lesbian, bisexual or transgender having no grasp of godly sexuality, moral sexuality, and also profess to be Christian.

And it isn’t about “liking Jesus.” It’s about submitting to, believing in — totally — committing one’s life to Him as His disciple and making Jesus the Lord of their life. Not only their Saviour, but LORD of their life. In obedience. Not a little bit.

Jesus, God, the Holy Spirit and the Word of God are not to be approached as a restaurant menu.

Hell is real.

Eternity is real.

And everything is black and white. Either or. Even though the world denies this and likes everything painted in gray tones and the overwhelming majority of those professing to be Christian have no understanding of what it truly means to be a Christian. To take up one’s cross daily, to be renewed of mind and spirit, transformed by the Supernatural power of the Spirit of God, and to live daily as a disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ.

It’s a world of Marie Antionette’s all thinking they can have their cake while eating it too…and, well, how did it turn out for her?

And the judgment of God is eternal.

The words and ways of man fail and fall by the wayside and will vanish — except for there determining the eternity of each person on earth.

No more excuses. No more bending to youth. Teach the children well in the ways and Word of the Lord.

Their eternity is dependent upon such.

Enough of the blathering, Babel, and spittle emanating from man already!

Because like it or not — and that doesn’t matter — agree or not — and that doesn’t matter either — it is all either or.

Either a person is truly Christ’s.

Or they are not.

Period.

There is nothing in between. No levels. No various floors or degrees.

Not according to me.

According to the word of God. A place far too few place their faces, their eyes, their hearts, their minds, their spirits, and their time.

It does no good closed on the shelf dear ones.

Open it and gain more than any and all the riches of this world. Do so with a child, a young person, a teen, a young adult at your side, near you. Every day.

There is no mixing of a worldview with a Biblical view. No having the world and being of God, of Christ, in the Word.

It’s a Biblical worldview, a Bible-centered life or it’s the way of the world.

There is nothing else.

Just the way it is.

Time to live in reality and forsake all illusion and delusion.

True love of a child is to rear them, raise them up in the solid clear whole foundation of the Word of God.

ACP — A Crooked Path

 

Most millennials like Jesus and the Bible, but 30% identify as lesbian, homosexual, bisexual, or transgender: study

While most millennials view Jesus and the Bible as at least “a little positive,” nearly one-third of America’s largest, most educated and misunderstood generation also identify as lesbian, homosexual, bisexual, or transgender, and 75% of them admit to “searching for a sense of purpose in life,” a new report from Arizona Christian University shows.

The report, New Insights into the Generation of Growing Influence: Millennials In America by George Barna, who leads research at Arizona Christian University’s Cultural Research Center, explains in an analysis of the findings that a number of the daunting challenges faced by the generation of 78 million — defined in this report as those born from 1984 through 2002 m are deeply connected to their spiritual perspectives.

“For understandable reasons, millions of millennials reject organized religion, or have qualms about religious leaders, and especially about religious people who may prove to be hypocritical. Their experiences, observations and assumptions regarding religion, spiritual beliefs, and faith practices have produced a turbulent spiritual experience,” wrote Barna, who’s also an ACU professor focusing on worldview assessment, development and cultural transformation.

The report notes that some 59% of millennials see Jesus as at least “a little positive” with some 39% viewing Him as “very positive.” Another 51% view the Bible along this spectrum with 29% having a “very positive” impression. And when it comes to Christianity in general only half of millennials see it as at least “a little positive.”

A majority of the generation also reject atheism, with only 25% seeing it as “a little positive” and 8% viewing it as “very positive.”

While most millennials view Jesus and the Bible positively and 65% still identify as Christian, many do not embrace a biblical worldview on sexuality, the sanctity of life and other issues. Some 30% of millennials, including nearly 40% of adults 18-24, identify as “LGBTQ.”

“The proportion of young adults who identify as lesbian, homosexual, bisexual, or transgender is roughly three times the proportion identified among the combined older adults of the nation. Given the moral and political implications of such an identity, that self-characterization alone raises a range of emotional challenges,” Barna said.

The 62-page report on millennials provides a detailed profile of a generation that is troubled and searching for answers to their problems, while “disengaged from spiritual teaching and practice, resulting in a paucity of knowledge, understanding, experience, and growth in this realm.”

“The resultant spiritual illiteracy virtually resigns them to a superficial worldview in which they grasp at ideas and practices that provide immediate comfort rather than lasting truth and peace. The moral chaos that characterizes the generation can likewise be traced to a dearth of coherent and pragmatic religious instruction abetted by the absence of mature moral reflection,” Barna said.

“The widespread confusion among young adults regarding aspects of their identity — spiritual, sexual, and also related to their sense of purpose in life — are a direct outgrowth of that spiritual wisdom vacuum,” he added. “It seems that often young adults fill the void by creating a self-image that is built upon self-centeredness, self-reliance, and independence. That may be perceived as arrogance, but as much as anything it may also be a defense mechanism covering up their personal deficits with which they wrestle.”

Barna suggested that a solution to the challenges being faced by millennials including their lack of purpose in life can be addressed by shifting worldview.

“Your worldview is the foundation of your decision-making. Every choice you make emerges from your worldview, which serves as the filter through which you experience, observe, imagine, interpret, and respond to reality. And every one of the thousands of choices you make every day have consequences. That means worldview is at the heart of everything we are considering in relation to the well-being and development of the young adult generation,” he wrote.

“Given the centrality of worldview to the human experience, there can be no improvements to the life millennials lead without addressing the fundamental role of worldview,” he explained. “And because worldview is developed and carried out in the competitive marketplace of beliefs and behaviors, think about the pervasive consequences for millennials of rejecting the biblical worldview in favor of other, more popular alternatives.”
