"Over the past 20 years we have seen the
nation's theological views slowly become less
aligned with the Bible. Americans still revere the
Bible and like to think of themselves as Biblebelieving people,
but the evidence suggests
otherwise.
Christians have increasingly been
adopting spiritual views that come from Islam,
Wicca, secular humanism, the eastern religions
and other sources. Because we remain a largely
Bible-illiterate society, few are alarmed or even
aware of the slide toward syncretism - a belief
system that blindly combines beliefs from many
different faith perspectives.”

"In 1958 only 1 in 25 Americans had
left the religious denomination of their
upbringing.
Today, more than one
in three have left or switched. And
nearly half of all people raised as
Presbyterians,
Methodists,
and
Episcopalians have left the faith of
their forefathers.”

BEACON - Electronic Edition, August 3, 1999, my emph, sw)
Why are people leaving churches?
 They were bored with church services. They were
not worshipful. The church did not help them meet
God.
 They did not feel people in the church were real.
 They avoid the "bad stuff. The garbage they had
accumulated in life is not dealt with.
 There are two worlds, the world of the church ... and
the real world .... Faith is not integrated into life.
 There is no answer to important questions.
They ask, "Where is God and why doesn't he do or
say something to me?" They get no answer.

Christian Growth web site, reporting on William D. Hendricks’ book, Exit Interviews)

some who would deceive you and pervert the

Kingdom - Church
And in the days of these kings
the God of heaven will set up a
kingdom which shall never be
destroyed; and the kingdom shall
not be left to other people; it
shall
break
in
pieces
and
consume all these kingdoms, and
it shall stand forever.
(Daniel 2:44)
Kingdom – Church
To Be Established On Pentecost
And He said to them,
"Assuredly, I say to you
that there are some
standing here who will not
taste death till they see
the kingdom of God
present with power."
(Mark 9:1)
Kingdom – Church
That Power Came On Pentecost
When the Day of Pentecost had fully
come, they were all with one accord in
one place. And suddenly there came a
sound from heaven, as of a rushing
mighty wind, and it filled the whole house
where they were sitting. Then there
appeared to them divided tongues, as of
fire, and one sat upon each of them. And
they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and
began to speak with other tongues, as the
Spirit gave them utterance. (Acts 2:1-4)
