The root ...Scott,<BR/>Thanks for another excellent post! The root problem of those who stay away from Word and Sacrament is varied and multi-faceted and can only be dealt with on an individual basis. I believe that we pastors have been stripped of one "key", that is, to bind sin.<BR/>Everyone is quite content to have us preach the "loosing of sins," but few (at least in the case of inactives) will bear with<BR/>the "binding" key. Since we can do little to "bring them back" short of proclaiming the Word of God (law and Gospel) all we can really do is pray for them. If they refuse the Word then they must face the consequences of that. I really believe that we are living in those days described by our Lord when "many will turn away" (from the faith) Matt.24:10<BR/>May the Lord keep us faithful til the end!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
