Bible Note: You are right about people wanting to have their ears tickled, Ed. However, I do not think that established congregations, with years and years of solid, Bible-based, God-centered worhip and teaching under its belt, are likely to face the dwindling of its membership to any significant degree if they stick to the God-ordained means of His grace. It certainly is possible, but if people know that they can come to that fellowship and drink of the pure spiritual milk of the word of God, those who are thirsty most likely will continue to come and drink. Now if Benny Hinn were to suddenly get his theology straight, then I would expect to see a sudden drop in attendance at his gatherings! --Joe! |
