most thought-provoking. thanks for posting this.
certainly this could have been created recently,
and backdated to 1968.
but i find the details like the phrasing “live together”, etc., sounds believable.
if it really was written in 1968, then the “many stations”,
people coming from “poor countries”, etc. is interesting.
and the many mega-churches preaching about praying for wealth and financial gain:
“Christians will not be open for penetrating preaching. They will not, like in earlier times, want to hear of sin and grace, law and gospel, repentance and restoration. There will come a substitute instead: prosperity (happiness) Christianity.”
true or not, i hope people will read it, and ready extra oil for their lamp...
“Christians will not be open for penetrating preaching. They will not, like in earlier times, want to hear of sin and grace, law and gospel, repentance and restoration. There will come a substitute instead: prosperity (happiness) Christianity.”
This is a dead on description of the post-modern, emergent, seeker-sensitive, purpose driven churches that are dominating the evangelical community with false teachers like Rick Warren and Joel Osteen with his Word of Faith heresy.
