This post was interesting. It kind of exposes the seeker-sensitive way we present the Gospel and how we miss the mark in leading people to believe that "all they have to do" is pray a "sinner's prayer." It is important to tell people the truth about sin, God's wrath and anger at sin, man's lostness in his sin, and the Good News of Jesus' incarnation, sinless life, death on the cross and resurrection - His sacrifice that has satisfied God's justice and paid the price for our sin. It is only in His righteousness that we have any hope. Apart from Christ we are hopelessly lost and in bondage to our sin. In other words' we need to get it right. That is something I strive to do when talking about the Gospel with my children. I do try to use words they will understand, but I don't want to ever dumb it down and tell them essentially an untruth by not giving them the whole truth.
