THE CHALLENGE OF THE CONTEMPORARY CHURCH

almost always makes the mistake of demanding the contemporary church going in the same direction as the churches have gone past.

No doubt we've all read the first chapters of the book of Acts, we were amazed with the behavior of members of the apostolic or early church and we want the church today is identical. Some who have been curious and have researched and read the history of the church through the ages, we also want the church to look more to the church who lived in the past, such as the strength of the persecuted church or Biblical thought and reflection of the church in times of reform, the church would also like was an exact replica of the nineteenth century church which was characterized as a missionary. But wait that resembles the contemporary church to church who lived in the past, apart from being a utopia, it is also illogical that to happen, so it is a mistake to try and strive to make that possible.

We must understand that the church must be developed through a constantly changing world. Must adapt to changes that the world has (say it must adapt, not adopt what the world offers.) And if you must adapt and thrive in the midst of this changing world, it is possible that the church follow the same mechanisms and strategies used in the past.

For example: If the world uses the Internet for things that are immoral why the church should be deprived of using it to spread the gospel? If rock is used by the ministers of the devil to attract young people why the church is going to despise rock pudiéndolo use it to attract youth at the feet of Christ?

It's a little hard to grasp what I am saying because he might have grown up in congregations that have fostered a legalistic and therefore does not accept the changes and we want things to work as the church of the past will work, ignoring the world has already changed and therefore the strategies of the past become obsolete and useless to the contemporary church.

The challenge of the contemporary church is to leave behind the mechanisms of the past and look for strategies to address this changing world and thus win the battle.

I assure you that if we leave the past behind and we project to the world challenges us today, we win!
