The church of indifference
you know this might sound like a whinge, but i'm finding being on some " christian" forums and websites is getting frustrating cos of one little problem that is having severe repercussions out here in the real world
its easy to go online and have a theological debate ( heated arguement in some cases)
though i do enjoy a debate
there are thing that are more important
LIKE standing against injustice
i can only speak for myself here and few good peoplei know
IM SICK TO THE BACK TEETH OF IT AND IM SURE JESUS IS AS WELL
cos it seems to me that people are more interested in arguing their own POV than leaving a lasting legacy
every day hundreds of thousands of men women and children suffer/ die while your having a Debate about something or other
if youre like me and wanna make a difference then
quit sitting on your hands, get up and do something
or you could sit back and stare into a computer screen while the world out here goes to hell
R.I.S.E International is a community interest company that teaches people about cults, it also helps adults/children rebuild their lives after leaving such groups
one of the worst ones i have come across is a cult called "The Children of God" aka "The Family"
this cult twists the word of god to a perverse point and in time past till recently violated children
there are many other such groups as this one
but there is a way to combat the tide
like supporting the work of R.I.S.E International and Stop The Traffic and The Safe Passage Foundation
