1. Why have some churches gone so far?

2. Why have some churches gone so far?
A change in our approach to Scripture
The inclination to lean on the idea that “We do many things for which we have no authority”
A softening of attitudes
The plea to keep preaching positive
We have become numbers driven
The real problem: A lack of respect for the authority of the Scriptrues

3. Final appeals: Ask for “the old paths” (Jeremiah 6:16).
Be deeply disturbed when brethren depart from God’s Word (Psalms 119:136).
Teach the young people to respect God’s Word and that there is no room for compromise (Numbers 22:18).
If you are not a Christian, tremble at God’s Word and obey.
