CONFORMED

You may not be aware but

there is a company of people
who has become the majority

in most churches today. They

have not been transformed
by the Gospel but they have

adapted their behaviour to conform to the

behaviour of the church. Note that I did not say

they are conformed to Christ, but to the church –

they have not become like Christ, but have learnt
Christian /church behaviour.

Learning to act as a “Christian” is a problem for two

reasons…

First, it does not deal with the fundamental issues
of repentance and salvation. No matter how much

one acts like a Christian, “unless one is born again,

he cannot see the kingdom of God.” (John 3:3).
