One cannot evaluate or model ones life on our present culture.One must "Look through Heaven's eyes."
In the words of Blessed Jacinta"if men only knew what eternity is, how they would make all possible efforts to amend their lives! "

It's the same mistake Jesus contemporaries made. They thought He came to free them from the Roman Empire. Some Christians today continue this distorted view by attempting to force their beliefs on others by passing laws and thereby create their own heaven on earth.

What standards?Who set them up?There are moral absolutes in God's Word.And there is moral relativism that changes as the wind blows.It's utter insanity to "go with the flow".

because they just don't understand or get the teachings of Jesus Christ. And society has a great power over people and their way of thinking.

Because there was no Jesus and there is no "Kingdom of Heaven."

The first answerer would know, then, that war is nothing to be ashamed of.
Why try to tell about something that no one has ever seen before?

"When we preach Christ crucified, we have no reason to stammer, or stutter, or hesitate, or apologize; there is nothing in the gospel of which we have any cause to be ashamed." (C.H. Spurgeon)
