| Crisis in America's Prisons |
What would you do if Jesus condemned your city? In Matthew 11:16-30 Jesus cursed three ancient cities. Could God curse modern nations? He did that in Old Testament times. Is there any hope? After Jesus had condemned Chorazin, Bethsaida and Capernaum, he offered hope. What is that hope? He said, Come to me and I will give you rest. Are we weary and burdened because of the wrong-doing that we have done? There is an answer, Jesus. Our prisons are filled but we still have the world’s highest crime rate. Our politicians posture and argue but we still have the world’s highest debt. We argue over health care while people lose their homes and savings to skyrocketing costs. We work longer hours than any other industrialized country and have no rest. Is there an answer? It starts with Jesus.
