*The Church in Nigeria and the 'emergence' of GEN Z* (IV)
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron"* (1 Timothy 4:1-2 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
The kinds of churches that have emerged, from those that look like business centers to those that look like an outright social club, to those that look like occultism.
All these in the midst of a serious decline in bible study. They are almost, if not completely clueless on the essentials of the Christian faith. There's already a growing yet silent rebellion against the church among them but guess what's keeping many of them in church now? Fear or Honour for their parents, as the case may be. If they were to make a choice by themselves, many would be out of the system by now. I'm deeply concerned.
*~The Christian faith is practicable and it yields the results promised in scriptures. It has the power to make an undeniable impact on the soul of a man. In our relationship with Christ, and the gift of eternal life, which is the core blessing of the faith, there are discernible fruits of changed lives via the development of godly characters that cannot be produced by self will and effort - something supernatural.~*
Another side of this supernatural lifestyle is the experience of the leading and gifts of the Spirit beyond reasonable doubts. This authentic Christianity is the only thing that can bail this GEN Z. Because, see, they don't have time for anything not working...
While we've had individuals who challenged the church in every of these generations, truth is, they were the exceptions. As per GEN Z, that will be the norm. They won't hold back from disagreeing in the name of honoring fathers. The millennials still do this with much caution. They won't be sowing endless seeds for 24hr miracles that may never come. They won't bow to threats of devourer because you want to collect 10 percent of their hard earned money. They won't pretend to have seen God's hand when all they can see is man's effort. They won't keep quiet in cases of domestic violence. Their placards are ready.
_MEDITATION:_
*"It's time for the church to sit up - we have a generation to save. It won't come cheap. It won't come by suppressing their questions. They must be adequately answered. I hope this stirs up something in you."*
