“What truly matters,” I said, after sharing my story of finding Jesus Christ, “is not our view as the church or as a society. What matters is what Jesus Christ is saying to us. The lie we’re telling ourselves is that compromising holiness will ensure church growth. That’s false. Embracing and raising up those who are sexually faithful and obedient, as witnesses to our culture, will attract the world. Without holiness, Jesus Christ can’t be seen in us by the world; and without love, the world will resist the truth of this holiness.”
