SDG 104 Seeker Sensitive Church vs The FAITH: Intro

2Tim 4:3-4

There's a massive movement taking “mainstream Christianity” by surprise but it isn't Christian.  Art Katz called it the Anatomy of Deception.

Now those in the movement who are generally sincere but none the less deceived praise it as a legitimate church growth movement, but it isn't.  It employs modern mass marketing methods engineered to draw large numbers of people by "meeting their felt needs" as their leaders put it.  They have also adopted the Luciferian New World Order's system of TQM or Total Quality Management to first 'covert', then 'disciple' and ultimately 'brainwash' their followers into radical "change" in their communities and ultimately the world.

They even refer to their volunteers and leaders in this movement as "change agents"!  Rick Warren wrote “Pastors are probably the most underrated group of change agents today.”

You may also hear it referred to a PURPOSE, MISSION DRIVEN, DISCIPLE-MAKING, CELL, META, or the ever popular SEEKER SENSITIVE churches of the 21st century.  Now their leaders claim they are doing this all for the "next generation."

They call all of this THE “new way of doing church”, and this movement should be of grave concern to anyone who's earnestly contend(ing) for the faith which was ONCE delivered unto the saints as exhorted to us by Jude in verse 3.

This is the first and the introductory message in a 8 part series on Seeker Sensitive Churches vs The One True Faith. Now provided the LORD's willing, the seven upcoming messages will address the seven core tenants of The FAITH as referred to by Jude and ONCE delivered unto the saints.  That FAITH which we are called to EARNSTLY contend for includes:

PROPER Bible Study, Worship, Fellowship, Friendship, Evangelism, Stewardship and Ministry!
