Don’t Be Afraid of All Slippery Slopes!
Every Christian has been told to beware of the slippery slope.
If we start having women in leadership, before too long we’ll be ordaining them! It’s a slippery slope.
If your church tries to love LGBT people, sure as shootin, you’ll be going liberal. It’s a slippery slope.
If you welcome Christians co-habitating – living together, pretty soon everyone will be fine with that. That’s a slippery slope.
And so it goes. “Yes,” there are slippery slopes and “yes” we need to be aware of them. But how should Christians who want to be faithful to scripture engage these topics without heading down the slippery slope?
