BIBLICAL & SCIENTIFIC ANSWERS

Is it unloving to rebuke compromise? When we stand against Christian leaders who compromise, I sometimes get accused of being unloving and have people tell me that I should be going to these leaders personally as per Matthew 18. But it’s not a personal matter. It is not a Matthew 18 situation. When Christian leaders make public statements and teach compromising positions on God’s Word beginning in Genesis publicly, then we need to judge what they teach against God’s Word publicly. We need to warn people. It’s not a personal conflict situation.

There is one thing I really dislike about being in the @AiG ministry! What I hate about it is something every Bible-believing Christian should hate. I hate it when we have to publicly oppose, debate, and challenge sincere Christians who, while they believe the gospel (and would even say they believe in biblical inerrancy), compromise God’s Word in Genesis. That is what I’m most saddened and stressed about. And all Christians should be saddened by this as Genesis 1–11 is the foundation for everything, for all doctrine, for our Christian worldview, and for the gospel.
