No longer a Christian country. ( Romans 10 v14 - 15 )

A leading church of England minister said recently, '' That England is no longer a Christian country'',I could have told him that years ago. Yes there is a church in England,many fine churches,but things are not what they used to be,the moral values of yesterday are crumbling,and the authorities frown upon those who  express any view that is contrary to theirs. We should not be surprised at what is happening,as mans fallen nature loves darkness rather than light. We do have freedom of religion, nobody hinders us,so what is the answer?,first of all we must remain faithful. Yes faithfulness is very important,faithfulness to Jesus,faithful to the word of God, unfortunately there is within the visible church,those who are departing from the truth.Without truth we are lost,we are going away from the God of truth,the blessed trinity,Our lives should reflect holiness,by our actions and by our words, I used to work with a professing Christian,who insisted in telling jokes that were not appropriate.We should be burdened for the souls of men and women,it saddens me as regards the youth of our country,and the children of our country. The dangers they face are very serious ,and without Christ they are lost. All these things should call us to action, to pray, let us never underestimate the power of prayer, whatever country you are in there are lost people,so pray not in despair but to our powerful God,who alone can raise up those who are dead in trespasses and sins.There is something else we can do ,we can tell people about Jesus, if we don't, how shall they hear, the answer is they won't.
