Verax Institute recently did a video series with my brother, Pastor Dean Good, regarding the big picture of what’s going on in the church right now. I know that many of you not only have questions about what is going on in the big picture, but, closer to home, what is going on in your own local church.
Some of you have a vague uneasiness about the fact that clean water and feeding the poor has taken on a more important role in your church than expositing God’s Word. You feel uncomfortable that your worship service is akin to a rock concert with a brief devotional thrown in for good measure. You see worldliness in the form of drunkenness, sexual sin, and gambling being defended under the guise of “freedom in Christ” and scriptural teaching about holiness and sanctification being totally ignored. I know there are other concerns. In fact, there are so many, I probably couldn’t list them all here. And, while we can determine from God’s Word what is wrong with some of this, many of us can’t figure out exactly why some of these trends bother us, we just know something isn’t right.
This series of videos will help you understand what exactly is wrong and why. The first video is especially helpful in defining the mission of the church from God’s Word and from there, we can better discern what is going on with the current trends in the church.
You may not agree with everything in this video series, but I encourage you to take the time to watch it. My brother is very knowledgeable and has the gift of sharing that knowledge in a very understandable way.
1) The Biblical Mission of the Church
2) Satan’s Mission: One World Society
3) The Infiltration of the Church
5) The Church as an Instrument to Bring in the New Age
6) Parallel Message, Aim, and Strategy
Thanks for posting.
I know you will find this so interesting, especially with the knowledge you already have about all of this.
I love these videos and have used them in my small group. Why are they no longer on the internet anywhere? I can’t find them?
You know what? I was just thinking about this post the other day. These videos really help to clarify what’s going on. I had no idea they had been removed. I know the man who put them together. Let me email him and see what I can find out.
He actually already responded and they are back online :) Thanks for bringing this to my attention.
