Saved Not Soft
American Christianity (Addressing Lukewarmness) | SavedNotSoftPodcast

Like carrying up your cross daily, just not on a Sunday. And it's like, we have this corrupted version of what we think, of what we think, Christianity is, but we've Americanized it because we've overexposed and prostituted the face in the name of Jesus to where we're actually putting ourselves in spiritual despair because we're failing to come to repentance in truth. That's it.

And this is terrifying. And then also one out of five church people who have never read their Bible, that's roughly 20 million people who actively go to church regularly and have never read their Bible. So why are you going to church? Why are you going to church? So that means, like I said, roughly 70 million people of churchgoers don't depend on the word of God.

So what that actually means is out of everybody who goes to church, reads the Bible, serves, actively supports, that's roughly about 30 million people. 30 million people out of the 235 million people. You want to know what percentage that is?

That means that about 9% of the US devote their lives to God through the accumulation of Bible studying, church attendance, and active participation of being a disciple. So the real true statistic isn't 68% of the nation is Christian. It's roughly probably about 9%.

But because there is a corrupted definition of what it means to be a Christian, people are actually operating in spiritual blindness and have devoted falsely and superficially because they don't understand what it actually means to be a Christian. And a lot of that also has to do with the discipleship problem that's happening in American churches. I'd even write this down.

As a leader, and I'm only saying this because, you know, I've never been a pastor, obviously. I've never been a pastor. I've never known what it's like to be an elder or host over a church. I do know what the Bible says, though. As a leader, it is your job and responsibility to disciple who you're shepherding.

And so a lot of these problems of people being discipled properly starts from the headship in these churches. If these pastors are not discipling properly and reaching people to share the authenticity and the conviction of God's word so it can transform them into the things of God, If they are not doing that, then it is done in vain. Then these people are just showing up for tithes and offerings.

They're being used as a support system to keep the church building. And it's being done in vain because people are not discipling properly. And that ultimately falls on the headship that falls on the pastors of this church. It falls onto pastors and apostles and prophets, evangelists and teachers of the church who are not operating in the spirit of God, excuse me,

uh correctly because they're looking to make a profit for themselves and not for god and so i think a lot of the reason as to why people say that they believe in god but they don't actually align with what god says means and they are not actually aligning of what god actually says of what it means to be a christian A lot of it could be off of self-deception, sure.

But then another part is based off of what these American teachers and pastors have been teaching to the pulpit. And what they've been teaching is that you could say the name of Jesus and you'll be fine. But the Bible does not support that. Nowhere in the Bible does it say, if you say the name of Jesus alone, you'll be saved. It's a declaration. It's an awareness.
