Received this from a co-worker — it’s a transcription of a John MacArthur sermon about the dangers of fighting for a cultural morality. The points made in this sermon are the very reasons that I was giving up being so “politically active” and engaging the news: I was going down the very path that MacArthur is warning against. Extraordinary how the Lord works — as I’m still struggling with changing my habits, He sends me a white-and-black affirmation that I have indeed done the right thing, and provides a solid perspective and understanding as to why it’s the right thing.
The link to an online version is here: http://www.biblebb.com/files/MAC/80-257.htm I have also decided to include it here in my weblog in case that site isn’t always up or available.
It’s pretty long (compared to most of the fare you’ll find here on my site or even in the things that I occasionally link to). But I challenge you to read it.
