I read a chilling and alarming article by Jim McCraigh titled ‘84% of Christians REJECT this Key Biblical Truth’. What is that ‘Key Biblical Truth’ being rejected by 84% of Christians? The foundational doctrine of the Trinity—the Godhead. A rejection of the triune God is a rejection of one of the main pillars of the faith. In other words, we are in deep doo-doo! What that tells me is that the prevailing posture towards the non-negotiables of the Christian faith is one of apathy. Elizabeth George hit a home run with her quote above calling apathy a numbness that creeps in and corrupts.
In this podcast, Roger says that: “We can’t hear the Lord because we have our backs turned to Him.” Roger hit the nail on the head! Is revival a possibility, or, will we sink further into the pit of apathy? I can’t say for certain, but, one thing I know for sure is that revival happens within the church, not outside, and the church is in a world of hurt.
It’s hard to hear when someone is talking to you, let alone hear them, when our backs are turned to them. It’s my opinion that even the churches that we would consider “on point” seem to be more focused on growing their kingdoms (here on earth), rather than His kingdom. What seems to have taken the back burner is the grave importance of one’s eternal address.

Most won’t admit the following, but I truly believe that there are aspects of the seeker sensitive movment that have seeped into our “solid” churches these days. It’s been slow and methodical. It’s been very calculated by the enemy, but it’s been effective. How can pastors, teachers and leaders of our churches focus on the real ‘meat and potatoes’ of the gospel when they’re too busy trying to figure out how to grow their ‘kingdoms’, how to make their services more ‘inviting’ to the masses, more ‘relevant’ to society, how to keep the ‘growth’ from dwindeling, how to, how to, etc, etc, etc??? It would seem to me that the enemy has hypnotized many of our pastors, teacher, leaders and church goers with the lights, the shows, the lattes, the performances and above all, the busyness. Churches are so busy that there’s no time or attention given to the still small voice of the Spirit saying: “Forget all of the ‘fluff’ and preach about the blood.”
If I had to take a wild guess, I’d say we’re headed towards more apapthy—not revival. Sure, I believe that the Spirit will fan the embers of some within true Christianity that have allowed the fire to dwindle, but not enough to make the difference. The trend seems to be going towards a ‘soft’ falling away from the faith for now that will give way to a mass apostasy just as scripture tells us in 2 Thessalonians 2:3:
“Let no one in any way deceive or entrap you, for that day will not comeunless the apostasy comes first [that is, the great rebellion, the abandonment of the faith by professed Christians], and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction [the Antichrist, the one who is destined to be destroyed],” (AMP)
In the meantime, may we continue to pray for God to open up opportunities to share His eternal, life saving, life altering gospel to anyone that has an ear to hear. My hope is that we might (big might) see some semblence of a spiritual awakening not only here at home, but, abraod as well.
😁Have A Nice Day!👍🏻
