Of course this is not easy, but it is a duty of those who would seek to maintain Christian conduct in a fallen world. If you are like me you hear about a lot of bad stuff in our society. It seems like some are not playing by the same rules that most of us are. We cannot expect righteousness and justice to be done in this world, those days are yet to come. Until those days come we should not be surprised at the creativeness of those who seek to destroy society as we know it.
Every week there is a new societal tragedy, and each one is increasingly more shocking it seems.
Since a 10 or 14 year old can figure out how to make a bomb on the internet, it is a wonder things are not worse than they are. I know of no perfect solutions to these problems. We are left to praying to God that He would protect us, our nation, and our families with His providential Fatherly care. Having done this, we must practice these acts of righteousness and deeds of mercy. However, we must never fall into the trap of thinking that doing good deeds transform a person or a culture.
