Qui Tacet Consentire Videtur. This Latin maxim means, “He who remains silent is understood to consent.
“Consent” = “agreement to do something or permission for something to happen.”
Many in the pulpits have become silent to the evil in this world. Christians no longer stand against evil or speak out against it.
Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and to the Greek.
Ephesians 5:11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
Most who call themselves Christians have become silent to many who in society cry out about their rights while taking away Christian rights. As the saying goes, if you stay silent against evil, you agree with evil and permit evil.
People who do evil and promote evil ways are haters of Jesus.
John 3:19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light because their deeds were evil.
John 3:20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
Jesus is light, and evil is darkness. When you’re in darkness, you stumble around because you are blind.
Christians have always stood against evil and brought light into darkness.
Proverbs 4:19 The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble.
Ephesians 4:18 Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart:
John 1:5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
When Christians stand against evil, they are confronting evil in the world and bringing light to the darkness in the world so that others can see.
Jesus stood against evil in his time and spoke against it. Preachers for 2,000 years have stood against evil and spoken against it.
But at the end of the world which we live in, Christians have become and no longer stand against evil and speak against it. And the pulpits are silent or agreeing to their evil ways.
Christians must speak out against evil and not be silent any longer.
Remember, if you are silent against evil, then you’re in agreement with evil and giving permission to evil.
Psalms 94:16 Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? Or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?
