In today's society, there doesn't seem to be many people willing to stand for anything. Principles and truth seem to be subject to interpretation and opinion. Have you ever heard, "don't place your values on me"? When individuals do stand up for a values or truth based value they are raked over the coals as being judgemental or "holier than thou".
Standing for truth should be easy when you are with people that share your values. However, the problem with that is that we are people. Even when we "share" values, we are human and humans seem to let their will get in the way of the truth.
As a Christian, we have to be dedicated to our cause which is Christ. We cannot allow our will or our preferences or even our egos to get in the of His will. We make Christianity into more of a secular club where our preferences determine who's in and who's out. In reality, God only wants one thing, a personal relationship with us. He wants our love, not our rules. We limit God by creating parameters for relationship with Him.
I want to stand on the Principles that He has given us. I'm willing to fight for those...
