Quote of The Week…

My concern is that we are getting dangerously close to the place in everyday American church life where the Bible is mined for “relevant” quotes but is largely irrelevant on its own terms; God is used as a personal resource rather than known, worshiped, and trusted; Jesus Christ is a coach with a good game plan for our victory rather than a Savior who has already achieved it for us; salvation is more a matter of having our best life now than being saved from God’s judgment. ~ Michael Horton, Christless Christianity.

    I was just thinking this the other day when I was reading God’s Word’s translation notes (the best I’ve ever read). They were saying how two column text makes it look like a reference work. And I read that only 16% of professing Christians read their Bible everyday. So that’s what it has become.
