SALVATION, NOT ACCOMMODATION:
Let's remain steadfast in the Lord in His Word - don't water down the gospel message
Salvation, not accommodation must be our testimony in this world that has fallen into darkness.
The sinner will send eternity in the eternal torment of hell - no pain, no suffering that we go through in this life cannot be compared to it
Therefore, pastors and believes, STOP with being used of the Devil to be a friend of the unbeliever, a friend of the world - to be "winsome" - speak the truth in love, not in anger - proclaim the uncompromised Gospel of Christ without apology and boldly the salvation of sinners that is by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone, according to Scripture alone. It is the believer's call - it is more important than any compromise that is being seen in churches
Get out of your comfort zone, be bold, be confident, trust God, proclaim faithfully Christ's death and resurrection for the salvation of sinners.

Revival and Christian History
I look at our society, and especially at pastors and other Christians, and in general, what I see is sad. I see the world determining right and wrong, while the church follows in agreement, pretending to be empathetic and understanding.
I have seen Christians accept homosexuality as good, claiming that the unsaved taught them how to be more diverse and accepting.
I have seen Christians accept and promote evolution, following the God-denying efforts of the world, claiming to follow science, while rejecting the One who made science.
I have seen Christians give their approval to our local library promoting a children’s book about a mom making a rainbow wig for her transgender daughter, thinking that they are being friendly and accepting to the world.
I have seen church leaders remove any mention of God from their website page about their upcoming sport tournament, not wanting to offend any of the unsaved who might want to sign up.
I have seen pastors and other Christians ignore hate, evil, lying, looting, and violence, pretending to understand and excuse these things under the guise of racism.
I have seen far too often pastors refusing to stand against sin in their desire to be seen as friends of the world. Why do so many Christians try so hard to be accepted by the sin-filled world, to be approved by them, and to be seen as friends of the world?
The truth of James 4:4 remains:
“Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.”
