Why Is The Church Broken? Print E-mail
Pastoral Staff Blogs - Rob Whitlow's Blog
Written by Rob Whitlow   
The answer? The church is broken because the church is not broken enough.

We have somehow come to the definition that to be broken, means that you are a wimp. That you know how to be sad. Being broken has nothing to do with your state of emotions.

It has everything to do with obedience. Yes, this may make you sad, but sadness does not equal brokenness.

PANIC! That's what the media would like us to do! But should we? Oh, should we be careful... yes. Should we wash our hands more and stay away from sick people...sure. But panic? NO! Not if we are true people of faith!

  • Mark 16:18 NIV

    "they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well."

This is the verse that snake handlers use to justify messing around with a 4 foot viper - and calling it church! But that is not what the verse is talking about at all.

In 2 Chronicles 5:13,14 we read:

in unison when the trumpeters and the singers were to make themselves heard with one voice to praise and to glorify the LORD, and when they lifted up their voice accompanied by trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and when they praised the LORD saying, " He indeed is good for His lovingkindness is everlasting," then the house, the house of the LORD, was filled with a cloud ,so that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud, for the glory of the LORD filled the house of God.
