Pyre 36 (on hiatus)

Not going to apologize for calling out public sin. If someone sins against me personally, I'll handle it in private as scripture says to do. But scripture does NOT say to allow public sin to run rampant and not call it out and in fact discourages doing so, because it leads others to think the sin is fine and acceptable. If you post evidence of your sin in public and people are cheering you for it acting like you're a saint, I'm going to call it out so they know it's not something that we Christians should abide by. We are to be set apart from the world, not looking exactly like it. When the world see's we protect our own on account if their feelings when they do wrong, they have no reason to think we have any answers. Frankly, I'm appalled at how many Christians have no issue with adult content. Have we truly become so degenerate? I pray that all of those involved come to repentance. I don't hate or dislike any of them. I'm just massively disappointed. But just because I like you doesn't mean I'm going to shut up while people are led astray and act like you can do no wrong. Someone has to be light in the darkness and willing to say behaviors are not okay when they're made public knowledge. I don't hold sinners accountable for their sins because you can't blame a blind man for being blind. We're supposed to be light and are held to a higher standard. If repentance is done, I have no problem forgiving and moving on, praying that it doesn't occur again in the future and that the moment is learned from and ultimately leads the person closer to Christ. I'm not holding people accountable to be mean or to start drama, I do so because I'm legitimately angry that representatives of the Christian community and Christ are behaving in a non-Christian manner and are causing others to stumble while doing so. I had to give the gospel to two people who stated that the events going on is part of why they're uncomfortable following Christ because of how this Christian community acts and was told that I was a stand out because I understand we are all sinful, we all fall short, but I don't pretend things are not sinful. We can temper mercy with justice. But if you are a content creator that calls yourself Christian with thousands of followers, I'm holding you to a higher standard than a brand new babe in Christ. I'm not going to apologize for that, because these babes see how you act and use you as a model. The world considers you a representation of what Christianity is. You screw up, you shame us and Christ publicly, and I'm not okay with that. Are you going to screw up? 100% I screw up too. It's why I'm very blatant about my imperfection and have issued apologies before when I've snapped. But you have to acknowledge you screwed up in the first place so others see you holding yourself accountable. I go a little hard sometimes and get angry. My new character is actually going to have that failing integrated into his lore. Today, I got angry. But I'm not apologizing for publicly calling out sin while everyone else pretends it's not. I run hot, on fire with my love of Christ and desiring everyone to be saved and through sanctification grow closer to Him. What about you? Don't be a lukewarm Christian. Works don't save, only faith does. Not accusing anyone I speak against not being Christian. But I'm going to be a Christian that encourages the growth of fruit in those around me, even if it requires pruning.
