One of the most noticeable trends away from the ancient path of Christ's will is complacency. In other words, many are simply lukewarm, unzealous, or uncommitted. I believe complacency in our churches has reached utterly pandemic proportions. And, dear Brother or Sister, I hope you realize that "walking in complacency" is NOT "walking in God's ancient path." (Revelation 3:15-16; Romans 12:11; Acts 2:46; etc) Perhaps you're saying to yourself: "This is an individual sin, how can you say this relates to the church as a whole?" The answer is: Because this spiritual sickness has reached such vast proportions that it long ago enveloped the leadership of many modern churches. And when leadership is infected, it indeed becomes a corporate problem. Why? Because leadership complacency trickles down to practically every corporate function of a congregation. In that sense, complacency HAS become a congregational "digression" away from the ancient paths.
