Are we too complacent?

In John 12:31-32, Jesus said, "Now is the time for judgment on this world; now the prince of this world will be driven out. But I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to myself."

All people will be drawn to Christ's death on the cross -- it is our duty to tell others of the work Christ on the cross. Are we too complacent, too comfortable? Is the church too complacent, too comfortable?

Ezekiel 33:1-6 (The Message)
God's Message came to me: "Son of man, speak to your people. Tell them, 'If I bring war on this land and the people take one of their citizens and make him their watchman, and if the watchman sees war coming and blows the trumpet, warning the people, then if anyone hears the sound of the trumpet and ignores it and war comes and takes him off, it's his own fault. He heard the alarm, he ignored it—it's his own fault. If he had listened, he would have saved his life. "'But if the watchman sees war coming and doesn't blow the trumpet, warning the people, and war comes and takes anyone off, I'll hold the watchman responsible for the bloodshed of any unwarned sinner.'

  1. Most are both complacent and blinded, in my opinion.
