Scenario #1: When a lonely Christian girl decides to visit the mall wearing a tight belly shirt and skirt no bigger than a handkerchief, she is managing to be foolish in two different ways at the same time. Firstly, she is instantly attracting the wrong type of guys to herself [by the dozen] and secondly, she is repelling any decent young men who possess the good sense to avoid her.
Application #1: When a local church abandons simple worship for lights, mics, and choreography, it will attract people who are dazzled, entertained, and turned on by the particular flavor of its style, and will repulse others who know better, or distrust their own preferences and emotionalism, or who have simply come to the place where their consciences are bound and they crave the simplicity of worship as described/endorsed in their New Testaments. In ten or twenty years, where will we be/who will we be after it all?
I honestly believe that the most important thing to take place on this planet is the worship of God by His church. It's not 'just worship'. This is why I think, pray, and blog about it at 3 AM.
