You can laugh at Christianity, you can mock it and ridicule it. But it works. It changes lives. I should say Jesus Christ changes lives.

If Jesus loves the church, you and I should, too. We can't use the excuse that the church has messed up too many times or that we're disillusioned. Jesus is the only person who has the right to disown and give up on the church. But He never has. And He never will.

The truth is that Jesus didn't come to rescue us from our humanity; He entered into our humanity to rescue us from our sinfulness. He didn't come to save us from being sexual creatures; He became one of us to save us from the reign of sin and lust, which ruins our sexuality. That
