The Church has been Tricked into Silence of the Needful and Boisterous Chaotic Speech of the Useless

Christ's Church has progressively been tempted to speak from the point of view of the World, saying what they say instead of what we say.  We go along with that in an attempt to convince people of the World to follow Christ, wrongly thinking that persuasion is key.  Knowledge of salvation doctrine is what we should be telling them, and that's the one thing we think will offend them, and so we don't tell them the one thing that belongs to our purview as Christians!  From the World's point of view, there is an almost complete dearth of the one thing they need to hear, namely 1 Corinthians 15:3-8 and Romans 10:9, 10:10 and 10:13, which comprises the most direct and complete statements of the gospel: 4 beliefs that Paul said he was also taught - he didn't concoct it, but it is THE gospel - and 1 action, whereby we are saved (justified, and all the rest of the sequence through glorification, guaranteed, as long as we continue to believe those four thing, trusting Christ to the end).  Included is one of those beliefs that leads us to righteousness (sanctification).  Have you, dear sibling in our same Master and Savior Jesus Christ, EVER told someone this simple gospel, relaying these facts and trusting that if they will ever be saved, then you can do no more to help them along than give them the gospel?  Have you heard your church do it?  Some will and some won't.  Have you ever heard the gospel alongside admonitions about gay rights ..ever?!  The World cannot keep from sinning, and all Christians are relieved from that bondage, and the only way for a member of the World to become a member of the Church is through this gospel.  We fight amongst ourselves, even over things that have long been thoroughly proven, such as "repent and be baptized", which Peter told a group of Jews who asked what they should specifically do after realizing that they caused Pilate to murder their long-awaited Messiah, but some modern Christians still pretend that that phrase encompasses salvation doctrine, even given the comprehensive descriptions of it in the previously cited passages as well as the multiple admonitions throughout the New Testament to continue to believe in order to have assurance of your salvation.  This inner turmoil causes further disregard for telling the World what Scripture says about being transformed from the Kingdom of Darkness into the Kingdom of Light.  Stop being distracted and take firm hold of your own flesh, which tempts you to speak before you know all the facts.  A comprehensive survey of Scripture concerning our situation is the responsibility of every Christian, even the waiters and those who have limited spiritual-type gifts of the Spirit of God.  Believe true things and overtly, consciously disregard every falsehood that you have been tricked into believing, whether by fear or a concept that disregarding that falsehood will bring you pain or displeasure, and fully embrace Master Jesus Christ, your Life, now!

The Church has been tricked into both silence of what is necessary and chaotic spewing of many useless words at the same time!  Look.  See.  Pray.  Do.  Be thankful to God.  Help each other.  Love God first, and then love self and others the same.
