Sitting on lunch break by myself (that is, no Christian co-workers on break), I realized that the conversation around me was quite disturbing. People were blurting out four letter words about every five seconds or more frequently than that. Then these thoughts came to my mind (realize, I didn’t have a concordance to look up the verses I was looking for at the time):
1. As little as 15 years ago, when people would say, “Oh my G–!” They would normally notice that there was a Christian present and profusely apologize.
2. People still do apologize to me when they some of those “more vile” for letter words.
The point being made is this…
Morality somewhere along the way in the last 15 years or so (an age that I can notice, not what someone has told me) has slipped away. Some principles in the Bible come to mind even though the exact verses don’t. Without the law, people don’t realize wrong. When the law is there they realize it. Whose fault is it that people don’t even realize it when they take God’s name in vain? Not being a big advocate of lifestyle evangelism alone, has your testimony proven anything otherwise? Eh…you didn’t have to read this, I just thought about the sad situation my workplace is in, and thought about whose fault it really is.
