Being “relevant”
Are we as a church in the twenty-first century too concerned with being relevant?
Oh dear sweet Jesus, yes we are.
Am I the only one who’s tired of hearing the “The Bible is a what-to, not a how-to book” argument made as an excuse for using unBiblical methods of churching?
Seeker-friendly churches scare me, b/c when it comes down to it, none of us are seekers.
GOD is the seeker.
In our preoccupation with being relevant, we’ve forgotten one thing. The Bible was never irrelevant.
For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. 2 Timothy 4: 3-4
This is short in hopes it will spur discussion. Carry on.
