“Here lies the great religious
issue of the hour – [are we preaching and teaching a message of] a God that
serves Humanity or a Humanity that serves God?” P.T. Forsyth.
This was written some 100
years ago – if it was a question then it is not much of a question now. In much
of the professing church we are preaching a god whose one desire is that we
should feel good about ourselves; we now have a great therapist in the heavens.
We are worshipping the ultimate idol – ourselves. Will we be surprised when we
find that God does not worship us?
