In America, Christian values so penetrated the American culture that many in the church had begun to view the community\u2019s values as Christian. Since the 1960\u2019s, liberal teachers have been very vocal about what they believe, while the church has been silent and done little to counter the liberal teachings. In fact, many preachers have begun preaching liberals values they learned in seminary. Many Christians still believe we are a Christian nation, but our community values are anything but Christian. Our communities at large no longer value life, the rule of law, the family, or any other values taught by God. If the church is to regain the moral high ground, it must speak out against the liberal teachings. However, it can not simple proclaim that God says so. Liberals don\u2019t recognize the authority of God because \u00a0they don\u2019t believe He exists. Christians must seek to return to the Bible and must show how Christian values benefit the world. However, teaching is not enough, they must demonstrate through their lives that God\u2019s values are superior to man\u2019s values.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
