Subject: How to "win the world" ? |
Bible Note: Rowdy, I read your post and I don't disagree with what you have written, but please also understand that I am not angry, just "upset about the theatrical, peformer orientated "worship" that so characterizes the modern "evangelical" church today!" I asked, "Is nothing sacred anymore?" What does sacred mean to you? Does God think it is important? Blessings, mommapbs PS: Just today I was reflecting about a time in Whistler, BC when I started down the mountain in a cloud. Although there were piste markers, for a time I could see nothing but white. Everything blended together - I could not determine which way was up or which way was down - so I fell over. (This is called vertigo.) Without a reference point, I lost my sense of spacial position. I think that this is happening within the church too. Everything is blurring together as we import more and more of worldly influences into our sanctuaries. What is so wrong with desiring an atmosphere where the holiness of God is distinct, and discernable? Indeed Jesus came to save sinners, and we all need THE Savior; but in my opinion, that need is recognized when, just like a piste marker, a holy standard is present. |
