I cannot for the life of me understand why Christians take up for sin when sin (in this case a slap in the face of Christians) will take up for this Olympic show of the things we are to hate. Namely sin. Sin is described as coming short of the glory of God. This so-called Pastor Jacob Whitehead has a mistaken reaction to it. I’m not angry with people. However, I don’t like their sinful nature and expose’ of it in the form of a depiction of the Last Supper. It’s wrong folks. Totally wrong.
We are told to understand that all the Apostles and others were unclean in sin at some point, but don’t take into consideration they turned (as in repentance) from their shortcomings and made themselves right with God. These folks in Paris aren’t and as of yet done so. They are reprobates (given over to do whatever they desire in their flesh).
Jesus’ sacrifice was to reconcile all men, but He has not smiled on sin. YOU have to make an acknowledgment of your sin. Did this “show” cause anyone to feel the Holy Spirit convince them of their sin and need for salvation? I don’t think so. Take into consideration the woman caught in the act of adultry. Jesus didn’t condemn her. Neither would I, but the kicker is Jesus freed (forgave) her with the stipulation to go and sin no more.
Nicolaitans taught a doctrine of compromise. As Christians, we can’t do that. In Rev 2:1-6 we see the Church at Ephesus was admonished yet they hated the Nicolaitans doctrine.
Don’t compromise your faith in God. Be decerning. Don’t be deceived. I will likely not be liked over this, but I will not compromise my Father’s Word.
