Ten Fatal Errors in the Church

Getting Back to Our Primary Purpose of Evangelization

Two thousand years ago, Jesus gave His followers a final command: “In your going, make disciples of all the peoples of the world” (see Matt. 28:19). Instead, in an effort to draw people to Christ, much of the Western church today has sought to become relevant through golden-tongued leaders, star-quality worship bands, large-scale buildings, and myriad social programs.
The primary purpose of the church is not to be relevant to our culture. Rather, it is to make the gospel accessible, through our day-to-day lives, to people who need Christ. God’s design for the church is for every member to live the gospel in whatever places God calls him or her, thus saturating every home, workplace, community, city, and nation with the gospel message through the people of God.
God is on mission in our day. Let’s work with Him by holding fast to His purpose for the church: growing and mobilizing all God’s people into relationship with Him and representation of Him, wherever they live.
