Imoral Problem Of Christianity: What If Christ Comes Today?

What if Christ comes today??? - immoral issue within the church

Globalization has affected religion greatly and Christianity is not an exception. Christianity grew rapidly as it spread to new places, new continents, new races etc. Christianity has grown in some communities to the extent that some have more than 90% Christian population. Communities that existed before Christianity had developed their own moral values, beliefs and cultures. Introduction of Christianity in some communities and cases has disturbed the social order and in some cases contributed greatly to high morality. The core of Christianity, Jesus Christ is an epitome of high morality and social justice issues such as education, poverty, welfare of disabled people, sick,

I discussed earlier how paull went through same situation as we are now. He too had to face immorality, injustice and sinful attitude in the Church. What did he do about it? Nothing more, But talked about it, taught about it and exemplified about it. Paul never failed to mention and teach about how to live a moral life. Everytime Paul used to sense immorality in any church he used to write to them about what they were lacking, Today many churches don’t mention about the immorality that their members have thinking that it would not be a good idea to get into their personal matters.
