Bible Question: Good word of encouragement. But the fact remains Mormons, Jehovah Witness, and other can motivate their people to get off the pew and out into the world. Why don't Christians have that same type of motivation? Jesus gave us the command to “Go”. Don't we have an obligation to do just that? Jesus said if you love Me you will obey Me. Does this lack of willingness to “Go” speak also of our lack of love for Christ? |
Bible Answer: Greetings EdB! Excellent question and observations in this thread! I have long believed that one reason cults are able to motivate their people more effectively than churches is that they expect more of their people. People want to feel that they are important! So, when a cult demands "big" things of them, they feel like they are accomplishing something. Churches on the other hand, apologize for even expecting people to get up on Sunday morning. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
