Will you also be a "Rethinker"?

It takes a lot of work and concentrated effort to restructure an entire world and everybody will have to do their part. Here we can see that the good folks in Hollywood are reading from the same script and doing their best to help the rethinking process:
-----------------------------
quote from article linked below:

"A recent “Law & Order” show portraying a leader in a college Christian ministry as anti-homosexual and Christians as "Bible thumpers" is drawing ire from a watchdog group for anti-Christian bigotry."

"In the opening of the NBC show's episode last week, a leader in a college Christian ministry, who opposed homosexuality, was portrayed as being guilty of making death threats against a professor studying the "gay gene." The lead detective also refers to Christians as "Bible thumpers."
--------------------------------
Christian, certainly you don't want to be labeled as a "bible-thumper" or "anti-homosexual" do you? No, no, lets (re)think these things over a bit. No, there's no room for this close-mindedness in the coming "civil society". Here, let us help you to think in a new direction, as this third quote from the article exemplifies:

"Fundamentalist Christians aside, Christians often distinguish the difference between homosexuality as a sin denounced by the Bible and homosexuals as people who should be treated with the love of God."

Bad, bad, fundamentalist. But is not believing God's word and faithfully telling unbelievers of their lost condition and to turn from their sin....is this not what it is to truly treat people "with the love of God"? It most surely is, for this is why the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ came;
"to give his life a ransom for many". (Mark 10:45)

Luke 5:32 "I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance."

That includes all categories:

Romans 8:23 "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God"

But, if the discussion is going to be about sexual sin then we must not forget to include all areas that the Word of God identifies as falling into the classification, e.g. adultery, fornication (all you unmarried sexually active folks - this means you), and the list goes on.

Are you going to be moved from your faith? If not, prepare, for there doesn't appear to be any room for you in the new society and you may have to be moved "aside" (above).

"But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints; Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks. For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God."
(Eph. 5:3-5)
