Thinking Biblically in these modern times. I'm just a layman, not a pastor. If you're pastor disagrees with me, He's right. But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. And we will do so in the best way we can, and with a clear conscience, and a full pouring out of our lives and souls. If silence is violence or worse, complacence, we must speak and expound on the Holy Scriptures. We are in the miserable state of the world, not because of God, but because of a lack of knowledge of God and who He truly is and has revealed Himself to be. Might as well discuss His Holy Word.
