Why Are Churches Dying?: Having a Missional Filter Like Jesus
Posted on May 23, 2014 in Theology by Nathan Cherry
How often have you said, “Those drunks ought to be behind bars,” “Hookers/Strippers are ruining our culture,” “Gays should be put on an island,” “Delinquents need taught a lesson”?
The point is that Jesus would go to the prison, visit the island, and seek these people out long before He ever came to your house or my house, or even our church. We would do well to remember that. And again to be reminded that Jesus didn’t see the lines that so often divides us as people, Jesus saw souls in need of redemption.
