Thought provoking too.

However, most of us younger Christians still label sin as sin. We just don't want old people and old thinking to force change.

We want Jesus to bring change.

So we should create an atmosphere where people will want to be so that when the "times of refreshing" come, they are there to experience Christ in a whole new way-- a whole new way that is void of useless religiosity.


As for social issues, though our Gospel is not a social Gospel, Christians in general could do more to help bring change to our society-- even if it is only on the local level.
