Topic:
Churches And Sacrifice
No church was ever built without sacrifice. Generally speaking,
churches that die do so because no one in the church either wants to
sacrifice or is able to sacrifice in a needed way because of some other
hardship.
That word sacrifice is a bad word in the new millennium. The new
millennium kinds of words are…
Its easy.
Easy credit.
No credit.
Nothing down.
Easy to clean.
Easy to fix.
No payment till next year.
Get it now.
Get it free.
No waiting.
Instant.
Those are the new millennium words used to tickle our ears. Inside or
outside the church we have to expend so much energy to get people
excited to do a job, when we ask for sacrifice, people can go into
shock. One of the greatest challenges of our age is to live out the
gospel as a member of a generation pampered, waited on, and whose every
need and whim is filled in an instant.
If these words have been a blessing, please forward them to a friend.
