For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. And he that taketh not his cross and followeth after me is not worthy of me. Herod's brother's wife hated John for saying that and got her revenge through her daughter to have his head cut off and put on a platter. But John did the will of God.
Parents are afraid to stand up against the evils that are ruining their children.
The filth and smut of the world comes into their homes via television, the internet, and bad literature. Parents will not oppose things taught and promoted in the schools their children attend, such as homosexuality, abortion, and other liberal and destructive ideas and lifestyles. Citizens will vote for corrupt politicians who back abortion, special rights for homosexuals, such as homosexual marriages, homosexuals openly in government and the military, integration of sexes in the military and other practices that are a disgrace to our country, because they feel things are going all right economically. People will attend and support churches with unscriptural doctrines and practices and who do not teach them how the Bible says Christians ought to live. Christians need to confront, not condone, sin.
