Theme: The World’s Methods
In this week’s lessons, we see how the church can fall into becoming like the world, and so lose sight of thinking and acting the way God has laid out in Scripture.
Scripture: 2 Timothy 3:1-5
Having looked at the world’s wisdom, the world’s theology, and the world’s agenda, we conclude our study with one more way in which the church can look like the world.
4. The world's methods. What are the world's methods? The world's methods are politics and money, and this is where the thinking of the secular church is today. That's why the secular church doesn't care much whether evangelicals proclaim an evangelical theology. They don't care much about theology one way or the other. What they're interested in is power and money, and the two go together.
