Should the Church change to reflect modern society?

Self-righteousness is what leads to 'spiritual suicide'. We should try to rid ourselves from it, so that we don't end up like the NT-pharisees. Unfortunately many of us Christians come across just like them. They may find that Mt. 21:31b applies to them:
"Truly I say to you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you."

 

As I said earlier, we are now under a 'new & better' covenant of Relationship and not under the old Law.

Agreed, Pharasetical Christians still want to walk after the Law and measure themselves as to it----that produces self-righteousness and a hard heart!

And as scripture says, "All things are possible with them that believe." And nothing is impossible with God....as in salvation of: the rich man, or ????????'s!

I'll leave judgment to God and try to' temper' His word with the Spirit in Love...<wink>

Hopefully I can leave you with a 'smile'...OD

 

You mean like the way you left me the other day?
My thread about the Good Samaritan is relevant to this one. Check it out.

 

I have a massive supply of smiles:



Enjoy your sabbatical and use it wisely.
