Worship & Hypocrisy?

The family rushed into the church building catching the last praise song before the sermon. LOVE GOD, LOVE PEOPLE. They applauded. (In fact, they noted, it was the colorful writing imprinted on the wall of the building that confirmed this love.)

He loves us. We love Him. Such a general good feeling we can take out of here to the world! (Applause!)

But then, upon heading out the door back into the world whey wondered: “Who is this ‘He’ of whom they sing? Was ‘his‘ “Name” ever mentioned? (For I didn’t see it past the darkness on their wall.)

OH THIS IS FREEDOM..LOVE IS WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT
LOVE GOD, LOVE PEOPLE
  • The worship song is popular hit on ‘Christian’ radio. Is its lyric and message so ambiguous that the world won’t recognize it?
  • Are the songs so accommodating and preaching so inclusive that young ‘christians’ will rarely hear “Lord JESUS” in worship?

The challenges of hypocrisy to the church continues as we wear the masks of new trends in worship.

Yes, the faces change, but so do our masks.

Hypocrisy OR Acknowledging Sins?

Scriptures
