A Culture That Cannot Be Corrected

Have you been told recently that someone was offended by a post you had written, that you thought was a reasonable expression of your thoughts, but not rude?

If you have answered yes to this, you are in good company. Believers who are bold and unassuming, are frequently targeted for abuse.

Those who want no conviction of sin in their lives will work to ruin the reputation and influence of those who wish to warn about the coming wrath.

In order to warn about the coming wrath we must first show the reason for the wrath.............that is sin!

Our world is deeply enraged at any suggestion that they may be sinful. Pride rules the hearts of most people. We have been trained as a culture to think very highly of ourselves, through the self esteem teaching.

Even those who claim they don't believe in self esteem have used elements of it in the training of their children by excessive praise and mild, if any correction.

Hebrews 12:11 "For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it."

A culture that cannot be corrected cannot be righteous.

Proverbs 12:1 "Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but he who hates reproof is stupid."

2 Timothy 3:16 "All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,"
