Anti-Christian bias from the media, the courts, and the federal government.

Christianity’s Last Stand



The Faith of our Fathers is crumbling. Christianity in America today is but a shadow of its glorious past. While much of the erosion has come from the advancement of science, secular humanism, philosophies and political movements, Christianity really has only itself to blame for the rapid decline.

The core of Christianity used to be the gospel of Jesus Christ. But the central message of the Bible has been ‘churched’ away and replaced by an emphasis on the feelings of the individual. Self-importance trumps Christ centeredness. You can have YOUR ‘best life now’. Prosperity baby! What can God do for you? Conservative Christians are for the most part rightly concerned about the downward direction of America and the increasing anti-Christian bias from the media, the courts, and the federal government. They see basic rights curtailed while other religions are placated. No prayer at an invocation at the same public school system that allows a prayer time and separate space for Muslim students. The recent moves of the Obama administration reversing policies on abortion and stem cell research only serve to underscore the pervasiveness of intolerance for Christianity. And while the response by both Catholics and Evangelicals has been swift condemnation, the real problem has not been addressed. Conservative Christianity has become synonymous with the political right. But much of the church has forgotten how to simply preach the true gospel message. It has become more identifiable with ‘causes’ than with the reason the church was established- to make disciples of all nations. Conservative Christianity fights the good fight politically often at the expense of spreading the good news. How do you wage a battle against the overwhelming tide of hedonism, secular humanism, atheism, Darwinian evolution, liberal theology which denies the divinity of Christ, and the ensuing moral decline of a nation brought on by the atrocity of abortion? The answer: Stay on the message of Jesus Christ. Christians for the most part have stopped being salt and light. From the humble beginnings of a nation founded on true dependence on the Creator, America has grown complacent and self indulgent as has the majority of Christians. From leaders more concerned with the common good of the people we have elected those who crave power and personal gain. Christians need to be about the business of boldly proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ. When that is their priority, God will take care of the rest.
