Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned. –Romans 5:12 ESV

Warrior;

We don’t need to seek a solution to the ills of the world through social justice, resistance and marches- we need to deal with the real CAUSE.

Leader, Thomas Guthrie pinpoints the problem:

“Who is the hoary sexton that digs man a grave?  Who is the painted temptress who steals his virtue?  Who is the murderess that destroys his life?  Who is the sorceress that first deceives and then damns his soul?  Sin.  Who, with icy breath, blights the fair blossoms of youth?  Who breaks the hearts of parents?  Who brings old men’s gray hairs with sorrow to the grave?  Sin.  Who, by a more hideous metamorphose than Ovid ever fancied, changes gentle children into vipers, tender mothers into monsters, and their fathers into worse than Herods?  The murderers of their own innocence?  Sin.  Who casts the apple of discord on household hearts?  Who lights the torch of war and bears it blazing over trembling lands?  Who, by divisions in the church, rends Christ’s seamless robe?  Sin.  Who is this Delilah that sings the Nazarite asleep and delivers up the strength of God into the hands of the uncircumcised?  Who winning smiles on her face, honey flattery on her tongue stands in the door to offer the sacred rites of hospitality and when suspicion sleeps, treacherously pierces our temples with a nail?  What fair siren is this who, seated on a rock by the deadly pool, smiles to deceive, sings to allure, kisses to betray, and flings her arm around our neck to leap with us into perdition?  Sin.  Who turns the soft and gentlest heart to stone?  Who hurls reason from her lofty throne and impels sinners mad as Gadarene swine down a precipice into a lake of fire?  Sin.”

Conduit, Jesus is the ONLY answer- Focus! HE IS THE CURE!
