Should we care about the weak and vulnerable Christian, the abused, the victim?

“Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a heavy millstone hung around his neck, and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.”

The Lord
That warning comes from the Lord, who became a human.
Though strong, He became weak;
though imperishable, He became vulnerable;
though able to protect Himself, He let Himself be abused;
though the sovereign Judge of all, He allowed himself to become the victim.
Our Crucified God
The first time Jesus came, He came as a humble Lamb. He was sacrificed to atone for our wickednesses. All who believe He died and arose for them can be saved.

But the second time He comes, He will come as the wrathful Lion. He will judge the wicked and avenge the weak.

#Beware

In the string of thought that follows, please allow me to spell out what I believe is the positive future for Southern Baptists.

This is being done as an extended devotional honoring the request of @bellevuepastor for Fasting and Praying for #SBC18.
Day 20 of 21 on Psalm 51.
Psalm 51 began with confession and personal lament and proceeded to requests for God to work transformation within the fallen human self. And it ends very positively, with a twofold request for God’s people, first, “On the basis of your good will, rebuild the walls of Jerusalem.”
While revival begins with inner repentance and spiritual transformation, it must move into outward action demonstrating change. “Rebuilding” must be seen not only in the life of the individual believer, but also within the whole community. Our churches need a culture change.
