I think many of the churches today have a lot to answer for regarding the decline of Christianity.

They are preaching a social form of christianity, rather than Salvation by repentance of personal sin and faith in the true Christian Gospel of Jesus dying for our sins, being buried, and being raised from the dead on the third day.

Some are teaching that everyone is a son of God, which is not scriptural; “Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God — children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God.” (John 1 12-13 NIV)

There is no power in the social gospel; there is no help from the Holy Spirit within a person to proclaim the truth of the Bible, because such a person is not Born Again. They are powerless to stand against the influences of political correctness watering down the churches beliefs.

Sadly, many churches are preaching ‘Churchianity’, not Christianity. On it’s own, going to church won’t save anyone; trusting in Jesus and what he did for us on the cross will.

But God always makes sure that there are still Spirit filled Bible believing Christians around.
