The Great Curse Called… Apathy

APATHY DEFINED Behavior that shows no interest or energy and shows that someone is unwilling to take action, especially over something important:

“Apathy is more than just indifference; it’s an attitude we need to abandon. There seems to be some propensity to wait for someone else to act and take initiative” Huffman Post

16 Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear the word of the Lord: 17 The time will surely come when everything in your palace, and all that your predecessors have stored up until this day, will be carried off to Babylon. Nothing will be left, says the Lord.18 And some of your descendants, your own flesh and blood who will be born to you, will be taken away, and they will become eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.” 19 “The word of the Lord you have spoken is good,” Hezekiah replied. For he thought, “Will there not be peace and security in my lifetime?” 2 Kings 20:16-19 New International Version (NIV)

WHAT CAUSES PEOPLE TO NOT CARE ABOUT OTHERS? 1. Overload. 2. Lack of healing and are therefore spiritually and emotional unhealthy. 3. The settlement of sin

WHAT IS THE MAJOR ISSUE? Losing your connection with God - Connection with doctrine - Connection with absolute truth - The absence of submission and obedience to God
