The Age of comfort

"Honey , pass me the remote please , the game is about to begin" Does this sound familiar ? Never in human history has technology so influenced society as a whole and integrated itself into our everyday living. Everything has been designed to entertain , soothe and comfort. The spirit of entertainment has strategized and schemed itself into churches with a subtlety that is mindboggling. We must have fun and enjoy God they say. Be careful what you preach so that you don't lose members in your ministry because of offense. To enhance their church or ministries stature leaders go to great lengths to accommodate everybody and so yield to compromise rather than take a stand for the truth. The spirit of faith has an unwavering integrity that will never budge on any onslaught that tries to distort the truth of God's Word. There is always a price to pay for standing up for the truth. God never called His people to have a good time according to the flesh and build a so called better tomorrow. This earth is not our home and never will be. We are only passing through. It is temporal and wil vanish. Our time here should be spent in fear and reverence before an Allmighty and Holy God. God is not your next door neighbour who you can play with. The body of Christ has a task to bring many souls to salvation , but not through man made ideas and strategies but through the power of the Holy Spirit. To God be all the Glory !!
