Hard Words

You stubborn people! You are heathen at heart and deaf to the truth. Must you forever resist the Holy Spirit? That’s what your ancestors did, and so do you! [Acts 7.51]

These are hard words spoken by Stephen. Is there a time and place where we too make a stand and call a spade a spade? If so, how does that fit into the message of love and forgiveness? And, more importantly, how does one make this statement without hypocrisy (after all, aren't we ALL sinners)?

Father, I would like to better understand... I want my life to please You!
