What makes us Christians shrug our shoulders when we ought to be flexing our muscles? What makes us apathetic in a day when there are loads to lift, a world to be won, and captives to be set free? Why are so many bored, when the times demand action? Christ told us that in the last days there would be an insipid attitude toward life. Billy Graham
About This Quote

The world will soon end. This is not something that can be debated or argued about, but something that will inevitably happen. I think that the reason for this decline in Christianity is because of the world. When people see the problems in the world and their inability to solve it, they simply turn away.

They believe that there is nothing they can do to fix anything. This attitude of apathy is unacceptable. We must not only work harder at solving our problems, but we must also work harder at encouraging others to do the same.

This means working on ourselves and loving others unconditionally, but most of all it means working hard for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
