Working Title: Moral Guidelines in Sharing the Gospel Where is the line between, “Meeting people where they are at” and “having itching ears, people will accumulate for themselves teachers who suit their own passions?" It is interesting that Paul said, in a roundabout way, both of these statements. In 1 Corinthians 9:19-23, Paul clues us in to what he finds as the secret to witnessing… “To the Jews I become as a Jew...” How far should we become in order to reach people with the gospel? On the other hand, Paul also tells us that in the end times, Christians will listen to only what they want to hear. Is there a danger for our own spiritual health in “becoming all things to all men that we might by all means win some?” The Bible tells us to meet people where they are at, but what does this look like? How far do we go, morally speaking, to meet people where they are at? After all, God became a man and came to earth, so it seems that 1 Corinthians 9:19-23 is a picture of t

I am apparently a giant in most Asian countries. The world today wants everyone to have what they want. When, in 2016, I visited the jungle in Cambodia, some of the people there were eating bugs and frogs and such (but also some amazing chicken and rice and jackfruit), but the craziest thing was that nearly everybody had smart phones. I can’t say how this happened, I just remember being bewildered at the sight of so many smart phones in the hands of people who appeared like they were barely making it. Granted their homes have never seen snow, so the houses really didn’t need to have walls. Nonetheless, many of the Cambodians were all glued to their smartphones like the rest of the world. It seems that the American dream, to have whatever one wishes for, is now worldwide, but this wasn’t the case 100 years ago.

Something needs to be understood about the name change of the Mormons. It should not be forgotten. The real reason the name is changing is purely because of deception. Think about it… If they are called “Mormons” doesn’t that separate them from evangelicalism? It is good for people to have the mindset that “The Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter-Day Saints” is equal to the Mormonism that they always knew as a cult. It seems that the whole reason for the name change is because of an esoteric agenda. This is not a conspiracy... hear me out. Below are some links that point to the decision for the name change. The first is the general conference for the LDS church, the second is showing that the Mormon tabernacle Choir will now be called, the Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square. These names are less abrasive when it comes to Mormonism. Through the years, Mormons have documented everything, which helps them in their destruction. A few years ago, they wanted to be more open about the his
