Apparently Pastor Ed Young isn't concerned with what people might think of him and his antics. His abomination of relevancy knows no bounds. Is this the way that Messiah would want us to reach the lost for the sake of Salvation? Are we to abolish the work of the Holy Spirit and replace it with relevancy? And should believers idly stand by and do nothing? When I saw this video, I was reminded of a quote I read from William Booth (the founder of Salvation Army):
“In answer to your inquiry, I consider that the chief dangers which confront the coming century will be religion without the Holy Ghost, Christianity without Christ, forgiveness without repentance, salvation without regeneration, politics without God, and heaven without hell.”
Mind you, this quote from William Booth was made in 1901..., prophetic, don't you think?
I heard a preacher say not too long; "If the Holy Spirit left this world, I'm afraid that most congregations would not notice; and they would simply go on as if nothing happened."
Now that's pretty scary.
"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires" - 2 Timothy 4:3.
