Scripture: 1 Peter 2:13-21, Dan. 6:10, Acts 5:29 Summary: We're immersed in a very political environment. Things are so intense that what one believes can get them socially "canceled" or deleted by friends on social media. Even so, many Christians find themselves wondering how they are to respond as citizens of heaven in our country.

What are you controlled by? Are you controlled by the love of God? Many today talk about the "God of love." and they redefine love and make everything they do acceptable because "God is love".

Many are left wondering what's next for their life. I ..read more

In what we would call "recent years" we have seen a rise in "deathworks." A "deathwork" is something that radically rejects what is sacred and tramples upon it, rendering it repulsive and vile. An example of this is abortion. It takes life which is sacred and makes it a right to kill life and celebrates the very act. Another example of this is found in the rise of pornography. It takes the sacredness of purity, marriage, and sex, and perverts it into lust and promotes casual sex while objectifying the participants and ultimately desecrating what is holy ..read more

Stockholm Syndrome happens when a person may have positive feelings toward their hostage-taker. Spiritual Stockholm Syndrome is very similar in that people have positive feelings toward their old life in the enemy's camp.
