Hi, guys —

St. Paul wrote, "the days are evil."

  • Should one assume that times have changed?

The Church has Good Friday and holy days.

Bob replied:

Dear Donald,

St. Paul would not find a conflict between the fact that Christians of every age see great evil in the world with the fact that God's work through Christ should be celebrated and upheld.  St. Paul also said,

"Where sin increased, grace abounded all the more." (Romans 5:20)

We live in an age where there is great evil, but also God's grace is abundant for those that avail themselves.  We need to keep a balanced perspective and certainly celebrate and honor everything God has done for us through His Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Peace,

Bob Kirby
