Many people are quick to call out pedophiles and adulterers. We speak against them loudly, with disgust and sometimes with pride. We should speak out against sin, of course, but Scripture does not allow us to stand above others as if we are "clean" while they are filthy.
The truth is uncomfortable: you are a sinner too, and not different in nature, only in degree. You would be embarrassed if God exposed your private thoughts and the secret things you do. “Let anyone among you who is without sin be the first to cast a stone” (John 8:7)
It is easy to call out the sins of others and feel safe by comparison. When we see obvious evil, we distance ourselves from it and assume we are better. But Scripture does not allow this kind of comfort.
The Bible teaches that sin is the same root in every human heart, even if it grows into different outward actions. “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). No one stands innocent before God by pointing at someone else.
No one wakes up one day and becomes a monster overnight. Sin does not begin at the extreme. It begins in the heart, quietly and gradually. James explains that each person is tempted by their own desire, and when desire is allowed to grow, it gives birth to sin, and sin eventually leads to death (James 1:14–15).
What becomes visible later was already present earlier. The difference between people is not whether sin exists, but whether it is confronted or allowed to grow unchecked. Tomorrow, we could turn into the same monsters we condemn today if we allow sin to creep in and take hold of our lives, as it did with them.
The devil is a destroyer. Scripture says, “He was a murderer from the beginning, and has nothing to do with the truth, because there is no truth in him” (John 8:44). His goal is to steal, kill, and destroy, not only our lives physically but also our souls spiritually.
“Be sober-minded and alert. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour” (1 Peter 5:8). If we are not vigilant and give him even a little room in our hearts, he will exploit our weaknesses and tempt us into sin.
James 4:7 reminds us, “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” We must remain steadfast in God’s truth and be radical, for only through Him can we overcome the enemy.
The devil tempts with promises that seem irresistible. He offered Jesus all the kingdoms of the world if He would worship him, but Christ refused (Matthew 4:8–10). In the same way, the enemy offers us wealth, power, pleasure, and recognition, promising satisfaction and happiness. Yet in the end, all that he gives leads to destruction, emptiness, and worthlessness. His gifts are traps.
Jesus removes every excuse for moral superiority. He does not limit sin to outward actions but exposes the condition of the heart. He taught that lusting after women itself is already adultery in the heart (Matthew 5:27–28). By Christ’s standard, hidden sin is still sin, and private sin still separates a person from God. There is no safe category where we can claim righteousness on our own terms.
In other words, when you lust or watch porn at home when no one is watching , it is no different in nature from the sins you condemn in others. You are indirectly doing what they openly do and yet you have the audacity to condemn them when you ought to look at yourself first. If you do not fully surrender to Christ, there is no assurance that you won’t become like the very people you judge and condemn today. Read that again.
Jesus also warned against assuming that judgment only comes upon worse sinners. Referring to tragic deaths, He said that those who suffered were not more guilty than others, and then gave a clear warning: “Unless you repent, you will all likewise perish” (Luke 13:2–5). The message is not about comparing sins but about the necessity of repentance for everyone.
Only Christ can deliver a person from sin. No matter how hard we try, we cannot remove the power of sin from our hearts on our own. Self-discipline, moral effort, or comparison with others may hide sin temporarily, but they cannot change its root. It is only through Jesus that we are truly set free.
As He said, “If the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed” (John 8:36). This freedom is not just from actions, but from control that sin has over our lives. Christ saves you from the penalty AS WELL AS the power of sin. Most people don't believe this and hence are defeated in their sins.
Christ is able to keep us till the end. Life is full of temptations, struggles, and trials that can easily pull us back into old patterns. But when we surrender to Him daily, denying ourselves, He guards our hearts and strengthens us. Salvation is not a one-time event but a continuous work of Christ in our lives, transforming us from the inside out.
Because this freedom and hope are only found in Christ, we are called to share it with others. Evangelism is not just a suggestion, it is a responsibility. Those around us are lost in sin just as we were before Christ reached us.
Sharing this Message is the most important work we can do, because it points others to the only source of lasting salvation. It is especially urgent now, as the events and struggles we see in the world show how desperately people need Christ.
We are living in the end times, and the urgency of repentance has never been greater. The world is filled with sin, deception, and corruption, and many hearts have turned away from God. Scripture warns that the days before Christ’s return will be perilous, marked by lawlessness, moral decay, and spiritual blindness (2 Timothy 3:1–5).
It is high time that we examine our own hearts, confess our sins, and turn fully back to Christ, the only source of true life and salvation. Delay in repentance is dangerous, for the righteous Judge will not overlook sin.
Returning to Christ is not a passive act. You are called to be radical. It requires courage, surrender, and a willingness to resist the evils of the world. We are called to stand against injustice, immorality, and falsehood, even when it costs us comfort, reputation, or even our lives.
Jesus said that following Him may bring persecution and suffering (Matthew 10:38–39), yet He promises eternal reward for those who remain faithful. To live for Christ means to prioritize His truth above everything else and to refuse compromise in a world that celebrates sin.
Now is the hour to awaken from spiritual slumber, to repent with sincerity, to stand boldly against evil, and to proclaim the Gospel without compromise. The day of the Lord is approaching, and it will come like a thief in the night (1 Thessalonians 5:2). Let us live with urgency, repentance, courage, and unwavering faith, bringing as many as possible into the saving knowledge of Christ whilst pressing on to perfection ourself, before it is too late.
MAKE RADICAL CHRISTIANITY GREAT AGAIN.
