Many Christians believe America is on the edge of a moral implosion. With the Supreme Court's ruling normalizing same-sex marriage, God was removed from our government, and the government established as God. For more than 40 years, "Confessing Christians" have become fearfully silent regarding the advancement of secularism and evil in our society. While a few Christian leaders are beginning to speak out, their voices are too little too late. Unless Christians push back on these issues today, America will soon become totally immersed in socialism, and our grandchildren will grow up in communism. Unless Christians speak up in their churches today the "Confessing Church" will soon be silenced, not by decree, but by default. The time has come when Christians can be "silent no more" Wayne J. Edwards is pastor of Heritage Baptist Church, Perry, Georgia. A graduate of Columbia International University, he is the founder of Mature Ministries, a discipleship ministry encouraging God's people to raise the standard of righteousness in their personal lives.
