Thought I would share a reflection I was thinking about this morning. Over the last few years, the WPF and those in that line of thinking created a huge monster of an up roar, rightly or wrongly caused some significant division over the TV issue.
Reflecting on this theme today, I realized it has been a real dead issue, none of their fears have been realized, I haven't seen that many OP's on TBN, GOD TV, Daystar, no Fund-raising scandals has been created over OP's trying to pawn God' Blessing for a
Psalm 59:14 gift this month. Dead, dead, deader.
Well you get the picture.
With this in mind, the real issue that has caused some issue and concerns is the so called
Relevancy movement. Which as I understand it is a broad concern trying to repackage the Gospel in post-modern jargon, look and feel.
According to my sources this is the #1 concern of the blue-blood UPCI
establishment. TV is a dead issue, with so many other vehicles for disseminating a message. Currently, there is You tube, Cell phone texting, INTERNET, Facebook, blogs, etc, can be done for next to nothing, and more people will see your message.
According to my sources, you will see a major backlash as died in the wool traditionalists (Old Timey) who see the power of this movement (Relevancy) drawing more and more young ministers into its fold. The Traditionalists will try and take it down or build a wall to turn the tide, mostly a reactionary response.
I think in order for any organization to be potent, change and revolution of new ideas is a necessity or it will die.
I think though what is clear is that WPF fears were totally unfounded and they mostly will become a smaller and smaller sect within the branch of Christianity known as Oneness Pentecost.
Am I wrong in my post Christmas analysis?
