[Christians] need to wake up from the illusion that the America we now live in – not the America of our nostalgia or imagination or best ideals, but the real America we live in here and now – is somehow friendly to our faith.

And it is neither tolerant nor morally neutral. – Charles Chaput (H/T to Josiah Concept Ministries)

For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 |
For we did not follow cleverly contrived myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ; instead, we were eyewitnesses of His majesty. 2 Peter 1:16 |
Really? In a country where nearly three quarters of the population are Christian? America is far, far too friendly to Christianity. Only under 10% of the American population can be considered atheist. They have almost no influence over the media.
