God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
At times one hesitates to reprove or admonish evil-doers, either because one seeks a more favorable moment or fears his rebuke might make them worse, and further, discourage weak brethren from seeking to lead a good and holy life, or turn them aside from the faith. In such circumstances forbearance is not prompted by selfish considerations but by well advised charity.
This modern practice has tended to promote false assurance… We all know so many who 'know' they are Christians, because they were baptized as infants or as adults for that matter. The same is true of countless people who have 'walked the aisle.' They were assured that if they would 'come forward' and 'make a decision' they could be saved. They came, and there some well-intentioned personal worker convinced them that because they came and answered 'yes' to the various questions and then prayed 'the sinner's prayer' that now they are saved and no one should ever make them doubt it! Then they left. And they went back to the same old life they had. They made no real public profession of Christ, but because they did as they were instructed they 'know' they are safe. This is a needless problem which we have created.
