”Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.“
Why the Church Isn’t Wack!
This week one of my favorite Gospel Artists, Tye Tribbett, was on local broadcast and repeatedly downed the church. He said most preachers and pastors were not called and that most churches were based on systems that work with or without God.
He emphatically said the church is wack!!!
Wack is a slang which means – Annoyingly bad or disappointingly bad!
These comments are reckless and irresponsible!
I’m not saying the church is perfect!
I could even understand if he said some churches are wack!
But for a recognized leader in the church to make these types of false generalizations is reckless and irresponsible!!
Understand me I do have concerns about some things people in Chuch do and with the conduct and actions of some pastors & preachers!!
But it the individuals that I have a problem with not the Chuch!
See I think we get in trouble as a Church when we try to relate to much to the world
We can stay Relevant without loosing Reverence!!
I believe you should still walk into the church and feel the presence of God. Based on how you are treated, and the worship experience.
–
The Preacher should preach Biblically sound messages to save our souls, heal our hurts and expose our sins!!!
Church is a place of deliverance, conviction, repentance and forgiveness!!!
Where sinners are saved, saints are strengthened and sin is challenged!!
Exalting the Savior, Edifying the Saints & Evangelizing the Sinners!!!
We need the Church!!! and telling people it’s wack pushes them away from what’s designed to bring the HOPE & HELP!!’
I’m not saying churches don’t have problems. That’s impossible because it’s made up of people!!!
Example: Bottle of water!!! (Not all pure) – But we need water to survive!!
We need Church to survive!
HOPE & HELP!!’
Our text today in Hebrew – the writer was encouraging Christians!!!
