church online: Agree or disagree
Brad Cooper asks the question on his blog:
“If you’d be so kind to Agree…. or Disagree to this statement:
we are to feed the hungry, clothe the naked, and visit the prisoner. But the chief needs of people are still spiritual, and social work is no adequate substitute for evangelism.”
Here’s my response:
I totally agree. Didn’t Jesus come to “do away with sin” by the sacrifice of Himself so that we could be restored from our broken relationship with God and become His very own children? Isn’t the gospel that those who are spiritually dead, and have no way to enter heaven, can receive NEW BIRTH? But we’ve turned the gospel into social programs and made Jesus the poster child for them. We’ve turned the gospel into political action and made Jesus a Republican! It baffles me why so much of the content on Christian radio is social, political, financial, familial… anything but ETERNAL!
