Summary
Thousands of pastors in Canada devoted their sermons last Sunday to affirming biblical sexual morality in response to a new law, Bill C-4, that some warn could criminalize such teachings. Dr. Jim Denison sees such possible prosecution as a sign of things to come for Christians who believe in biblical morality. Then he offers three reasons Christians should still choose compassion despite an increasingly contentious culture.
