As was noted in a previous article the three major Trojan Horses that are sneaking into the Bible-believing Church right now are: 1) Thin Complementarianism ("Christian feminism" is en vogue again); 2) A modified view of sexuality (note Same Sex Attraction teaching), 3) A left leaning understanding of racial justice (i.e. a Christianized version of critical race theory/cultural Marxism). Because conservative evangelicals have been swept away in the "Celebrity Culture" the Church today as at risk of making subtle compromises. Have you noticed how if well known church leaders ("experts") from the Gospel Coalition or _____ promotes something how the masses seem to almost blindly follow? Sola Scriptura is affirmed on paper but is often not fleshed out in daily life and in church ministry. Now more than ever, do we need courageous believers who are willing to flesh out the implications of 1 Corinthians 16:13 and to stand firm (regardless of the cost)!

Stand Firm!
After nine years of church revitalization work in a previous ministry context I can personally affirm the points Charles Spurgeon drives home in his short address on "Standing Firm."

Politics According to the Bible (Issues that Matter)
1) Creation and Abortion: God is the great
Creator (Elohim) and life begins at conception (Psalm
139:13-16). Murder (taking innocent life) is a heinous sin (Exodus
20:13). By principle, the Bible clearly teaches
that abortion is murder.
Psalm 139:13-16, For Thou didst form my inward parts; Thou didst weave me in my mother's
womb. I will give thanks to Thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully
made; Wonderful are Thy works, And my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from Thee, When I was
made in secret, And skillfully wrought in the depths of the earth. Thine eyes have seen my unformed substance;
And in Thy book they were all written, The days that were ordained for me,
When as yet there was not one of them. The forerunner of the
Messiah, John the Baptist, leapt in his mother’s womb (Luke 1:41). See also Jeremiah 1:5.
Science today (3D
ultrasounds) unmistakably affirms the perfect testimony of Scripture. It is remarkable that those who believe in
creation are mockingly called “science deniers” by evolutionist today, yet
those who say life begins “when a
mother says it begins” (often at birth) are considered wise. You can be convicted for double homicide for murdering
a pregnant mother (eg. Lacy and Conner Peterson);
but if you choose to you can abort a child with protection from the United
States Supreme Court.
God
created the womb to be a place of safety and protection for unborn infants. Since 1973 53 million abortions have been “legally”
performed in America. By comparison over
6 million lives were mercilessly taken during the Nazi Holocaust. The modern day Democrat party celebrates
abortion (Planned Parenthood) and the LGBTQ movement. These are now essential components of the
Democratic party platform (see below). It should also be noted that younger Republicans are increasingly abandoning the conservative social causes that matter most to Bible-believing Christians.

The Ultimate Measure of a Man
What is generally true concerning all men is especially true of pastor-shepherds. The worth of a soldier (Christian/pastor) is not determined during times of peace but is proven during times of (spiritual) conflict.
Acts 16:13, "Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong."
