Compromise

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.

About JimR, Chaplain

I'm a 74-year-old guy, in October 2024, who worked in Naval Hospital Camp Lejeune for 28 years and now retired as of 31 Dec 16. I've worked in medical records, the Health Benefits Department, Billing, and the IT department and retired as the Personnel Security Manager for the hospital. I'm a musician and Corvette enthusiast. Yes, I have had two. I traded my second Corvette for a Harley Davidson Fat Boy in mid-summer 2019. Then in 2024, I traded to an HD FreeWheeler FLRT. I've already ridden the new one a thousand miles in 6 weeks. I'm also searching for a fresh new outlook on life with new spiritual insight among other things. I was ordained a minister in 20190202. I've become certified with the American Chaplaincy Association through Aidan University in June '21. I've found that with the unconditional love of my companion, Libby Rowe life is complete through God. She's a beautiful, vibrant, giving woman who gives her all in everything she puts her mind to do. She and I married on 24 July 2015. She was ordained in February 2022. She has a blog too called Under a Carolina Moon. Give it a visit.
