1. Average behavior: Doing What most of the people do most of the time.
2. Normal behavior: Living according to the teachings of the Bible.
-- God is our manufacturer. The Bible is our operator's manual.
-- Living according to the value system of the Bible is the normal, natural, logical Way to live.
3.
Frequency may make a non-Biblical action average but
never normal.
4. Living within the Biblical "prohibitions" is perfectly normal.
-- A certain prohibition isn't wrong because the Bible says it's wrong. The Bible says it's wrong because it is wrong.
-- Normal
(biblical) living is sound practice from a psychological, physiological, financial,
and sociological point of view.
5. Even though never practiced, certain sins can appear "normalized" to the born-again Christian through exposure to --
-- Humor. Dirty jokes always get a laugh. TV situation comedy scripts built around a suggestive theme are usually very popular.
-- Music. Things are sung about today which weren't talked about in mixed company 50 years ago.
-- Drama. The soap operas are a living catalog of all the sociological abnormalities known to the human race, to say nothing of sinful practices.
-- Fiction. Four-letter words are off the toilet wall and into the best-sellers.
--
Advertising. The bright and the beautiful are seen doing all the abnormal things
in the most attractive environments.
6. The
born-again Christian must remain sensitized to the
abnormality of sin.
