The modern western Church is Full of Unbiblical, Vile, Evil, Disgusting Doctrines. She is like salt that is thrown out and trampled on.
Many in the modern western Church unthinkingly accept the doctrine of demons such as doctrine of "rights", "equality" and "private property" as legitimate, or even Biblical. They think that anything which the secular 'liberals' critique must be right, because they are liberals, and that anything secular 'conservatives' support must be somewhat legitimate, or at least, not evil. Such unthinking Christians are wrong to think as such. The issue is not whether it is 'liberal', 'conservative', 'radical', 'labour' or "Liberal' is determining the morality of an action. The issue is whether it truly is that which is in accordance to the righteousness of God.
It is because of the modern western Church's wavering stance on moral issues, and its fear of people that make her all too willing to compromise with the world, so as to whore with it, that she is like salt that is not only good for nothing. She is good only for being trampled upon. The modern western Church in her willing compromise with the world, all while making excuses for such compromise, under the guise of being 'nonconfronting' and 'gentle' , and pretending to be righteous in doing so, deserves to be trampled upon. She is full of the fear of people and seeks to do good works in front of the world for show, fearing it does not see such works. Matthew 5:13-16 says:
Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
What Matthew 5:13-16 means is that the Church is the salt and light of the earth. The Church, because it is, not is becoming, or will be, but is the salt and light of the earth that she should let her good works which God does through her, shine. It does not mean to seek to do good works to bait the world into hearing the Gospel, so as to add to the Gospel. No! The Gospel is the power of salvation (Romans 1:16). Nothing needs to be added to it in presenting it, such as good works, or the demon doctrine of cultural sensitivity, to make it powerful.
The power of Gospel is sufficient unto salvation as Romans 1:16 says. Thus, anyone who thinks other things are needed to make it more powerful are denying the Word of God. They are unfaithful to God in even thinking that. Such people are those who seek the approval of the world, and its respect for they do not fully trust in God's Word that the Gospel is the power of all salvation.
You may say, do you not know how righteous God is? That is exactly what the point is. The true Church always seeks the righteousness of God. This includes conforming one's mind to the righteous of God. Romans 12:2 says: "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God". As such, the true follower of Christ is to eradicate all worldly thinking from his mind, and renew his mind with the righteousness of Christ.
The mind of the typical western Christian in the 21st century Church, or modern Church, is one that is full of worldly doctrines. How? It accepts and tolerates worldly doctrines such as "rights", "equality" and "liberty", which are only just a few of the vile doctrines that it accepts in its mindset. Such doctrines are in direct conflict with the Word of God. They are diametrically opposed to the Word of God. They are of worldly wisdom which are a manifestation of bitter envying and strife in one's heart (James 3:14-16):
But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth. This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish. For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
Much of the doctrines the modern western Church accepts or tolerates such as doctrine of "rights", "equality", "liberty" and "private property", are precisely the manifestation of bitter envying and strife. People fight for rights and equality, as well as private property because of their envy against others who have more than them, which leads of strife. This is precisely the spirit behind both capitalism and communism; the fear that others have more (earthly things) than oneself, and that when others have more earthly things than oneself, one is oppressed. It is of envy and strife, which all worldly philosophies are based on, regardless of culture, circumstances or era.
The modern western Church has failed to trust fully in God. This is manifested by their belief that it needs to do things on its part to make the Word of God more powerful, relevant or sensitive to the world. This itself is a vile, blasphemous belief. As such, is it no wonder the modern western Church has been so susceptible to spiritual attacks on it by means of injection of worldly thinking into the Church.
Is it no wonder many in the modern Church are angered by the doctrine of submission of wives' to husbands, or believe that private property is righteous? Is it no wonder that many in the modern Church think that usury is not only legitimate but even Biblical? Is it no wonder that many in the modern Church think that a Christian criticising an unrighteous government for passing an evil law is to "impose" one's views on it or on society? Not at all. This is because the modern Church is full, not just tainted by, but full of vile, evil, despicable doctrines which it accepts and tolerates in its mindset.
All the conflict within the modern western Church over such doctrines are a result of ignorance and unstability on part of many in the modern Church, not divisiveness on part of those who expose evil doctrines which have crept into the Church.
The modern western Church has lost her salt by such compromise with the world, regarding all kinds of things, including her very mind which God commands her to renew (Romans 12:1-3). As such, she has made herself not only good for nothing. She has made herself worthy only to be trampled upon by men. That is precisely what is happening to her now. She can only blame herself for compromising with the world, its ways and thinking, and whoring with it.
