The room was set \u2013 a worship center at a beautiful campsite in southern Georgia. The chairs were set in a giant circle. My co-presenter, Kevin, and I had spent the last two days here teaching a group of high school students about God as our creator and man\u2019s relationship to God. God is our creator; humans are created in His image, marred because of sin, yet having great hope in Jesus Christ. I believe many of the students would identify as being either practicing Christians or having a belief in Jesus. On this day, we were having a Q&A time to intentionally answer questions we may not get to during our scheduled teaching time. Questions on race, sin, LGBTQ+, sex, creation, <\/span>abortion, and more had come in since the first day.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The goal was to have a large family-style conversation, one where we weren\u2019t teaching to them from the stage but were sharing, answering their questions from a historically biblical position.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Our first question: \u201cI\u2019m already having sex. Why should I stop now?\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

We responded with God\u2019s biblical design for marriage and sex, as written in Scripture from Genesis to Jesus\u2019 words in <\/span>Matthew 19. We also talked to them about the high rate of unintended and unwanted pregnancy and the problems that come as a result. The statistics for these things would drastically drop if sex were held within its God-ordained parameters.\u00a0<\/span>Our answers didn\u2019t go over too well. They visibly, but respectfully, disagreed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Next question: \u201cAbortions are sometimes necessary due to financial reasons. Why are you against it?\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Again, we laid out our case. \u201cScientifically, life begins at conception. This isn\u2019t just the Christian view, this is the predominant view among atheist scientists. In Genesis 9, we read that we should not take innocent life because people are made in God\u2019s image. We do not kill innocent humans.\u201d Scripture advises that all life is created in the image of God and has intrinsic dignity, value, and worth. The artificial distinction that a human becomes viable or, in essence, \u201cmore human,\u201d is exactly that, artificial. DNA begins at conception. <\/span><\/p>\n

The room erupted in anger. People yelled. People cried. People walked out. We hit a communal nerve.<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What just happened?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

I wasn\u2019t surprised by their questions, but I was caught off guard by their attitude \u2013 the aggression in their response. There was no room for dialog. They didn\u2019t want to hear Scripture or scientific facts. To them, we were wrong, we were violent, and they were done with any mutual participation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

READ:\u00a0Why the pro-life movement must counter pro-abortion \u2018comprehensive sex education\u2019<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

But this attitude isn\u2019t just unique to the young people we were speaking to. Based on the letters I receive from parents around the nation, the conversation of sex and abortion are issues that many young people want to keep separate from any conversation about God or righteousness.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Abortion usually comes at the end of a long road of, what I consider, often poor and unbiblical choices made by women and men. Choices that, statistically, are impacting African American women at some of the highest rates in our nation. So, when this group of predominantly African American students vehemently argued against God\u2019s design for sex and in favor of murdering their unborn children, I became aware of three distinct issues facing this generation (not just black youth) that Christians should speak into immediately:<\/span><\/p>\n

1. A Lack of Biblical Discipleship<\/b><\/p>\n

Today, we have a generation of young people undiscipled by the truth of scripture. If<\/i> they go to church, they aren\u2019t hearing the complete gospel or being discipled to understand what it means to be a follower of Jesus.<\/p>\n

One young woman yelled at us, \u201cI\u2019ve been in church my whole life, and I\u2019ve never heard the things you\u2019re saying.\u201d I empathize with her frustration.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The latest research by the <\/span>Cultural Research Center<\/span><\/a> revealed that only 13% of teaching pastors have a historically biblical worldview. If church leaders don\u2019t know what it means to be a Christian, how can I expect these young people to know?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve stayed quiet. We\u2019ve not been intentional in our discipleship. We\u2019ve played music and jumped around instead of ensuring our young people understand the word of God in context. <\/span>Biblical truth, graced in love, is what\u2019s needed. May we biblically disciple young people.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Postmodernism: It\u2019s All About \u201cMy Truth\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

Without a standard for what is objectively true, we are left with what is relative. There is no standard for what is objectively false. This relativistic \u201ctruth can\u2019t be known\u201d framework is better known as postmodernism. Scripture states that God\u2019s word is truth. Jesus says that He is the Truth. Truth is knowable because truth resides in God.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Yet, today, many reject God because He doesn\u2019t affirm their truth. Scripture is clear that we must worship the correct God correctly. Once we are in Christ, we live our lives according to God\u2019s righteous moral law: \u201c<\/span>Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind\u201d (Deut. 6:5 & Matt. 22:37).<\/span> God determines our function and the standard by which we live. These are objective truths. But when you\u2019re submersed in a culture where the greatest truth is that there is no knowable truth, what we are saying is that there is no knowable God. God is truth.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When Christians fail to teach this simple fact, young people find the idea of objective truth confusing at best, and at worst, offensive and outright worthy of rejection. May we unapologetically declare the truth of God\u2019s word.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Environments That Promote Disregard for Life<\/b><\/p>\n

There is a blatant disregard for life occurring in society. And it\u2019s growing. We see this in mass shootings, gang violence, family violence, and yes, in the murder of the unborn taking place in abortion clinics across our nation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Growing up in an area where you\u2019re surrounded by death, loss, and violence (as these young people are) only exacerbates this disregard. It\u2019s pretty hard to stand for life when you are constantly bombarded with death and loss. Many have experienced the death of close relatives or friends. Every one of them has experienced the loss of a parent due to incarceration.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I am sure a few of the young women in our audience had ended the lives of their babies. Where is Black Lives Matter? Where is the outrage? More importantly, where is the Christ-centered church offering love, truth, and discipleship? Because each one of these precious young people has a life that matters. Many simply haven\u2019t been taught the value of their own lives. <\/span><\/p>\n

Without knowledge of being created in God\u2019s image and the intrinsic dignity, value, and worth that all life human life possesses, there is nothing to challenge the “here today, gone tomorrow, I have to \u2018get them before they get me\u2019” environment so many are used to.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

These conditions have created a disregard for life; their lives, their sexual partners’ lives, the lives of their friends and enemies, and the lives of their unborn children. This is not to excuse behavior, but it is to say that if we expect to see any shift in young people\u2019s appreciation of life, we must teach them the truth about the value of life. <\/span><\/p>\n

May Christians interrupt environments where life is disregarded and bring the hope of the gospel.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
