Don't Forget to Fix the Broken Windows

Just a little bit of sin can wreak havoc on an entire life and, consequently, upon many people. For example, the idea of the Hubble Space Telescope was devised, costing some $2.5 billion to bring to fruition. However, whenever this expensive telescope was launched into outer space, NASA learned that a particular lens was off by less than 1/1000th of an inch. However, until the astronauts repaired this minor mistake, the telescope wasn't any better than a regular, inexpensive telescope.

Isn't sin similar to that? A small, seemingly minor deviation from godliness could render you ineffective in the kingdom of God.

But, why exactly is sin such a popular phenomenon in the present-day church? I think the Broken Windows Theory sheds some light on the current situation. This theory states that as people walk by windows that remain broken, they will assume that no one is control and that breaking windows is a tolerable action in that community.

A similar thing may be cause for the complacency in the church. Sinners are allowed to live as they please without the fear of receiving a rebuke from the pulpit. Quite amazingly, even those who assume leadership positions in the church behave contrary to the clear teaching of the Bible, resulting in a cycle of scandals that bring great reproach upon God and the church.

So, how do fix this hypocrisy? The solution is simple. Let's start boarding up "the broken windows." In other words, let's not be afraid to address sin. If you do not fix these broken windows, others will assume there is nothing wrong and will follow in the footsteps of those destined for an eternity in hell.
