Worldly wisdom might make you prosperous.  It might even make you happy.

But approval and acceptance by the world is never a good sign for true Bible believers. As a former pro musician, I can affirm that compromise is required as much as talent is.

In the same vein of thought, this applies to the pulpits of our churches. If preachers like Rick Warren are adored by the mainstream media, there must exist compromise. The world system requires it! 

If you have ever experienced a church falling to purpose driven or other Roman Catholic ideology, take solace from the fact that we are even closer to hearing “come up hither.”
