We live in an age in which has been coined the phrase, “the permissive society”. This expression implies that there are now permitted in human affairs and relationships things which once were considered improper and sinful. Some of these have been condoned by changes in legislation, and in the habits of life of men and women things are practised which demolish standards accepted and venerated for centuries. Where do Christians stand in all this? Are their standards to be allowed to disintegrate? Should they subscribe to permissiveness in order to be with the trends of modern society? This book attempts to give a Bible-based answer to all of these questions – but starts by looking at two activities that are vitally important if a Christian is going to have any realistic prospect of swimming “against the tide”.
