CHURCH IN THE WEST.. ~ K P Yohannan “Revolution in World Missions” “As the days past into weeks, I began with alarm to understand how misplaced are the spiritual values of most western believers. Sad to say, it appeared to me that for the most part they had absorbed the same humanistic and materialistic values that dominated the secular culture.” “The Church Jesus called out of this world to be separated unto Himself has, to a great extent, forgotten her reason for existence. Her loss of balance is seen in the current absence of holiness, spiritual reality and concern for the lost. Substituted for the life she once knew are teaching and reaching for prosperity, pleasure, politics and social involvement. ‘Evangelical Christianity,’ commented Tozer prophetically before his death, ‘is now tragically below the New Testament standard. Worldliness is an accepted fact of our way of life. Our religious mood is social instead of spiritual.’ The further our leaders wander from the Lord, the more they turn to the ways of the world.”
