Jer 6:15 (NAS) "Were they ashamed because of the abomination they have done? They were not even ashamed at all; they did not even know how to blush."

I have been feeling such deep amazement, disgust and contemplation at the state of today's "christian" raised youth!
Turn on the TV for 5 minutes and you will see something repulsive but when you see the same behavior coming from the very young people that you know it brings a deep feeling of grief!
There is no more shame for shameful behavior! There is no more hatred of sin!
I see pictures of friends, acquaintances and relatives that grew up in "christian" homes and churches behaving like the children of Sodom. They flaunt their drunkenness, and immodesty. They put photos of themselves on the Internet with only an arm and hand covering their nude body. They curse, smoke and "party", wear scant and provocative clothing and then go to "church" on Sunday.
And where are the adult Christians with their wisdom and reproof? They are ignoring and excusing behaviors that will ultimately kill and damn the ones that they claim to love. They are "winking" at sin in the name of youth and love.
They too have lost the awareness of shame.

1 Cor 15:34 Wake from this drunken fit; live righteous lives, and cease to sin; for some have no knowledge of God: I speak thus in order to move you to shame.
