No Fellowship With Darkness

Scripture

Don’t team up with those who are unbelievers. How can righteousness be a partner with wickedness? How can light live with darkness?

~2 Corinthians 6:14, NLT

Quote

If the world was gray, there would be no sin.

~Ya’akov

As a pastor, you long for and pray for unity. I often think about what could be accomplished if we worked together. I was thinking today about our DEBT RETIREMENT, less than a dozen took it seriously. the way things look now, it will not happen by my retirement date. How do you get a congregation on the same page, sharing the same mind and working toward the same purpose? It is a tough question.

In Matthew 13, Jesus told the story about the weeds {tares} and His disciples ask later for the meaning of the story. Jesus said, “The field is the world, and the good seed represents the people of the Kingdom. The weeds are the people who belong to the evil one. The enemy who planted the weeds among the wheat is the devil. The harvest is the end of the world, and the harvesters are the angels.” In Matthew 25, Jesus tells about the judgment of the nations where mankind in divided in two groups, the sheep and the goats. Sheep have faults but they are much more manageable than goats. Goats are stubborn, hard headed, belligerent and mean spirited. You can lead sheep but you have to drag goats because they don’t follow. They are filled with their own self-will and they go where they please. Dr. Billy Graham believes there are more goats in the church than sheep, more weeds than wheat.

How can you get a church unified when there are weeds among the wheat? The answer is: you can’t! Light cannot have fellowship with darkness; it is impossible. Some see me as divisive but abortion is evil, it is morally and absolutely wrong. Of course I see the world as black and white. I believe in absolute truth {light} and I believe there is also evil {darkness}. The gray in all its shades is a figment of mans imagination. In a gray world, there is no right or wrong and there is no sin or judgment. Sad to say but this wicked and liberal world is going to be shocked because there is sin and there will be judgment.

What fellowship does same sex marriage have with holy wedlock? What fellowship does a straight man have with a perverse, iniquitous, twisted man? Why would I want to hang out with a guy who is attracted to other men or a guy who wants to be a girl? We have nothing in common, nothing other than the fact that we are both members of the human race. Light has no fellowship with darkness.

Jesus mentions light and He talks about darkness. To my knowledge, He never talked about this world of gray that the democrats, progressives, and liberals believe it.
