Christians are Commanded to REPROVE All Works of Darkness

​

The great deception of Satan is that we should never judge anyone, by criticizing their religion or beliefs.  This viewpoint can only come from someone who has REJECTED Jesus Christ and the Word of God.  No true Christian would ever speak such foolishness.  In fact, Jesus DID tell us to judge people, but He told us to judge RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT (John 7:24).  We are not to condemn people, because the Bible already condemns them (John 3:36).  We are to follow the guidelines of the Word of God.  The Bible is filled with advice on dealing with other people.  For example: In 2nd John 1:10,11 we are warned not to give our approval or blessings to those who preach false doctrine.  We are to reprove their works of darkness (Ephesians 5:11).  In fact, we are to reprove (speak out against) all works of darkness.  In Psalm 94:16, God asks, "who will rise up for me AGAINST the evildoers?"  Sadly, most professed Christians are too busy selling religious books, making a buck, criticizing each other, and playing church to care about the Truth.  I'm not kidding, it's tragic! 

​

America needs a whole new generation of Christian believers who will RISE UP as God pleads in Psalm 94:16, against the evildoers and the workers of iniquity.  I don't see too many Christians EXPOSING anything nowadays.  You'd think that out of all the millions of professed "Christians" in America, that there would be more than a half dozen websites exposing the evils of the godless public school system!  Where are the Christians fighting against Wicca witchcraft, the evils of Harry Potter, false religion, godless Christian rock-n-roll music, abortion, alcohol, MTV's lasciviousness, Hollyweird, and all the other works of darkness?  America's Christians are sleeping.  Without mentioning names, I just don't understand a nationally known Christian organization that does little more than sell books.  Their website exposes nothing, they just sell books and commentaries of the Bible.  They're dead!  They think they're serving God.  Look friend, I'm of the Biblical belief that if you're not making someone upset, then you aren't serving God correctly, "Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution" -2nd Timothy 3:12.  The church in Acts should be our example.  They got the job done, and boy were the people mad at them.  Stephen was stoned in Acts 7.  James was beheaded in Acts 12.  Peter was almost beheaded in Acts 12.  Paul was almost lynched in Acts 21.  Please read Acts 21:28, "Crying out, Men of Israel, help: This is the man (Paul), that teacheth all men every where AGAINST THE PEOPLE, AND THE LAW, AND THIS PLACE: and further brought Greeks also into the temple, and hath polluted this holy place."  The Apostle Paul's preaching had caused an uproar, contradicting their beliefs, customs, laws, and traditions.  Paul gave them the Word of God and they became maliciously angry as a result!  Now compare this to the average dead church today that wouldn't dare offend anyone.  Listen folks, we've got to stop playing church and start preaching the Word of God to the public (Acts 20:20)!
