I have noticed that people who are raised in the faith have a higher risk leaving the faith more then some who wasn't raised in the faith that found Jesus and god in authentic way and I know this from personal direct experience

[@eleanapshock9016]

They are leaving, because they never have had experienced the intimacy with the Holy Spirit!

[@promisesmithee943]

I'm surrounded by culture Christians. It breaks my heart.

[@lw97nilslinuswhitewaterweb15]

I agree, but we must distinguish between Cultural Christianity and Christian Culture. Religion without culture is dead.

[@jonjonboi3701]

What’s wrong with that? Cultural Christianity is better than being religious

[@georgesmihaies3002]

I would suggest to address the issue of “Cultural Christianity” by considering the following: born of water and SPIRIT”, (Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit:) for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.

[@cunite9263]

The more a person sticks to his religion, the worst his life becomes because they have been brought up in the human tradition and blinded into the knowledge of the truth found only in the holy 📙

[@ll2405]

This is an interesting point. If people look like you, talk like you, act like you, and you feel comfortable being in that situation…your culture is more important than your faith. This is why you have white churches, black churches, mennonites, Amish, orthodox Christians, Korean churches, Catholics (different varieties), all different types of Protestant denominations, new age Christians on and on and on…it’s never ending. People naturally feel comfortable being with their own kind. Edit: this happens in other religions as well. People naturally gravitate towards their own kind of people. Even if you have interdenominational, mixed churches, there is sub-groups and cliques within that setting. It’s like you can never escape it. There is an element of hypocrisy in this video as well because it seems they also group themselves to a particular variety. Guilty party here.

[@faithoriginals485]

Preservation of the saints takes away the very essence of obedience and denying ourselves to follow Jesus not because it comes out naturally because we are already saved but because we are fully aware that we can actually continue to sin but by doing that, we will be punished and we'll grieve the Holy Spirit and it hurts our first love, and so we obey and do good works for His glory alone. So it was our own willingness and because of our understanding of God's character, not because we got saved and that's it, that we don't have to do some effort to actually continue to obey GOD.

awesome video

[@lightningsamurai4134]

Romans 8:9 King James Version 9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

[@AVKingJamesBible]

Great video. Love your work in bringing the gospel to the people. I’m honored to call you both brothers in Christ! ❤️✝️❤️

[@jonjonboi3701]

Why is it a problems. Cultural Christianity is a good thing

[@ClipZ_Gaming_1]

I think you’re misunderstanding what cultural Christianity is.

[@praz7]

Well if you believe in equity, social justice, pacifism then you're also a cultural Christian. Lot of liberal values are basically just post-Christianity. So what now, is it also dangerous? Or you're just going to pick and choose what you consider Christianity and call it dangerous? You might call yourself a liberal critic of Christianity yet your metaphysics is very christian.

[@Sue-ec6un]

Until 'Christians" rebuke the Catholic Church, I am on the side of God not 'church'.

[@stephanieskinner336]

Amen, The Anti Christ Catholic Church needs rebuked.

[@lw97nilslinuswhitewaterweb15]

Oh, the same old debate Catholics VS Protestants :D

[@lw97nilslinuswhitewaterweb15]

I agree with Lawrence FOster's comments

[@lw97nilslinuswhitewaterweb15]

But I agree, the Catholic Church is corrupt. And I even have many cultural Catholics to agree :)

[@nicolesanders4692]

I left the catholic church after getting into God's word for myself...

[@RichardCranium.]

Once saved always saved is a minority opinion

[@joellukewarriorforjesusthe293]

Thanks for this

[@michaelalbertjr.3230]

Cultural Christianity and Christian Culture are two things BTW. Both our faith and our culture are supposed to be Christian, you cannot seperate the one from the other.

[@jasonayres]

I teach pre teen kids Bible lessons at a couple of local schools. This has been good food for thought. I've been prompted to pray about some.. stuff. Sad to hear about Rhett and Link. They have made some videos for children's ministry that made us laugh and learn bits of the Bible.

[@kestonluke6439]

In the beginning was the word!

[@magatism]

It has to be Cultural Christianity. You cannot continue to sin and call yourself followers of Christ.

[@michaelalbertjr.3230]

Absolutely. There's nothing worse than a form of "Christianity" that rejects the tough side of God (Matthew 23).

[@lw97nilslinuswhitewaterweb15]

good we can agree. Also those people believe God was OK with race mixing...

[@magatism]

@@lw97nilslinuswhitewaterweb15 God made everything in pairs, to thine onself be true.

[@Shemaiah439]

The gates of Hell will not prevail against the true church. What we have today are fans of Jesus and not FOLLOWERS. Are you a part of the remnant church?

[@lw97nilslinuswhitewaterweb15]

very true

[@lw97nilslinuswhitewaterweb15]

BTW, that rock band doesn't belong into a church.
