Freedom Costs

Freedom is not free. If only Christians were as quick to act upon their responsibilities as they are quick to assert freedom.

I think Christians should stop blaming God for being absent when they themselves are not present. They should stop blaming God for all the ills of the world as if humanity had really been endlessly laboring to cure them.
