Sensitivy Training...

Having lost all sensitivity, they have given themselves over to sensuality so as to indulge in every kind of impurity, with a continual lust for more.

- Ephesians 4:19 -

We need sensitivity training...Not to learn tolerence but rather to learn how to be sensitive again. One of the dangers in today's culture and society is we are becoming de-sensitized to things. For example, violence no longer affects us the way it should, we have realistic violence and killing in video games (a child's game) and think nothing of it, we have cursing, including the Lord's name taken in vain, on public television, and think nothing of it, we have larger than life pictures of provocative almost nude women in the windows of stores at the mall, with small children walking around, and think nothing of it. We have become de-sensitized to these things, and it is increasing,

here is the danger...

 

"Having lost all sensitivity, they have given themselves over to sensuality so as to indulge in every kind of impurity, with a continual lust for more...

 

Ephesians 4:18 gives us the consequences of a de-sensitised people..."They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts.

 

Be imitators of God...Wake up O Sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you. For more info on how to live a life worthy of your calling in Christ, read Ephesians 4:20-5:33
