Where From Here?

You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how will it be made salty again? It is good for nothing anymore, except to be thrown out and trampled under foot by men. Matthew 5:13 NASB

You are like salt for all mankind. But if salt loses its saltiness, there is no way to make it salty again. It has become worthless, so it is thrown out and people trample on it. Matthew 5:13 TEV – The Good News

Dr. Albert Mohler suggests a book for those interested in how Christians have and are making accomodations for the popular culture. Here’s a quote from his essay:

”Wolfe traces the pattern of church-swapping and denomination-switching. This ”circulation of the saints” is a pattern tied to consumerist religion. Worship is no longer dictated by theological conviction, but rather by personal taste. Heavily influenced by an entertainment culture, modern evangelicals are looking for worship that is experienced with the thrill and excitement of the latest musical styles and video technology.”
