Zachary Schertz - Theologian and Author
"Imitating Christ with each stroke of the pen."
I am a theologian, first and foremost. I only know one thing for sure that I want to honor The Lord in all that I do. Too many young people are leaving the Church and the primary reason that they are is because they are not being taught The Word.
I would argue that if parents taught youths that The Word was history and not just a book of morality they would stay. If teachers taught their students that Christ and the prophets that foresaw Him were not just good moral examples, but true people they would stay. If priests did not teach that Christ was merely man and just a teacher, they would stay.
Why are young people leaving The Church, because they do not know who He is.
I aim to change that.
"Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them, When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of their coasts, and set him for their watchman:
If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people; then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning; if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head. He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him.
But he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul. But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand."
- Ezekiel 33:2-6
