Many Christians are grieved and angered by the moral degeneration of our culture. But let us be grieved and angry at the right things: sin and Satan have ruined our world and ravaged countless lives. Many fear for the future. But let us fear the right thing: the judgement of God against our unbelieving neighbours whose only hope is forgiveness through Jesus’ blood. You have wicked and sexually lost neighbours. Abraham did too. But he didn’t hate them, he loved them enough to pray for them. If we claim to know Abraham’s God, then we ought to follow his lead, pleading with the Lord to spare our lost neighbours because God hears the cry of their sins, but he also hears the cry of our intercession. God give us hearts filled with pity and mouths filled with pleading for the lost.
