For His Sake: A Look at the Ministry of The Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission

by: staff - Oct 1, 2007 - comments: 3

Are Christians helpless and hopeless in a culture spinning out of control? Absolutely not, says Richard Land in this 4-minute video from the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission.

“Hope is not lost,” Land emphasizes during the clip. “If every follower of Christ understood how powerful their faith can be in impacting our culture and determining the future of our nation, if churches were beacons of hope, reflecting Christ and not the culture around them, if God’s people were truly committed to doing what is right and speaking out against what is wrong, just imagine what our world would look like.”

Watch this edgy and attention-getting clip for an introduction to the work of the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission and a spirited reminder that “we must press on—in His strength and with His wisdom—to impact our culture for His sake.”

How sad that this is needed on a Christian website.

After chairing a committee to see which state convention our church should join, SBTC or BGCT, and reading all the back biting comments made by pastors towards “brothers” and watching my pastor lie about a fellow deacon from the pulpit I know it is needed.
I have been out of church for a year now but looking to come back
maybe my wound is starting to heal. please keep me in your prayers as you are in mine.

I agree that name calling is uncalled for. Oftentimes it is purely inflammatory and designed to distract from the real issue at hand. Perhaps we need to review everything and see if there is some issue that has not been brought to peoples attention that is the real problem.

Stayed on Jehovah,

Judge not, seek unity.  As we consume the body of christ do we not also realize that we do so to empower our own spirit to walk as Jesus did. Once we have consumed christ, do we walk on a path without him? Seeking a communion with him time and time again, wishing to correct the wrongs that we commit against others, eachother and ourselves (1 united in Christ our lord) time and time again. Is there only one communion with Christ, and does it lie with the confession or the nicean creed.  Faith in God conducts righteous activities, and the freedom to do so in our name as if it were christs. Having faith is a sign of hope, that through action.  “though I walk through the valley of death, I have faith by my side surrounding me always, knowing I am heaven bound by my own convinctions to be of no harm to others, but a beacon of the light of righteousness to those who seek mercy,help,pity,from under the vails of oppression, greed reveals its head and as amodel to avoid. God bless, Amen
