HIPPOCRATES
Why has the church become tolerant to things God is intolerant about? Many today rest their theological debate on the hinges of God commandment of love. But in their effort they have missed the key word, “one another” and who the one another are. If we’re to put the text in context, the one another Jesus was speaking about cannot be the world or the things of the world, but in fact is the church. Jesus wasn’t speaking to the unsaved but rather to the saved when He made this commandment. The disciples/apostles were the recipient of this great command. For those that argue that Jesus was speaking to the world insist that Jesus was hypocritical and was in direct conflict with the written Word of God. But that’s not the case, Jesus is the Word incarnate in flesh; therefore Jesus and the written Word are in complete agreement. In our effort to palatable we have become tolerate of sin and in fact conformity to sin. I was watching a web cast about homos*xuality in the church; I was amazed at the number of pastors/preachers who are accepting this abominable lifestyle. Many have argued that God made them that way… which is hypocritical to the written (Logos) Word of God.
The thing that blows my mind is the church tolerance of that which God objects. To take it a step further is the hypocritical tolerance.
Ex: Many claim we’re to love and accept people the way they are… especially when addressing the homos*xuality in the church… the hypocriticalness lies in the tolerance of homos*xuals but the intolerance of rapists… both parties could make the claim, “that’s the way they are”… but many Christians would tolerate the homos*xuals but won’t tolerate the rapists…
can be hard dealing with someone who has a broken heart that you didn't break. However, I believe even in their/your broken state, God will send someone to restore your faith in love.
