“The twentieth-century Church of Christ is spiritually unable to stand against the rapid changes that take place around her because she has not learned to view history from the perspective of the reign of Christ. For that reason, she thinks of the events of her own time in entirely secular terms. She is overcome with fear in a worldly manner, and in a worldly manner she tries to free herself from fear. In this process God functions as no more than a beneficent stop-gap”
The Bible and the Future
La Iglesia de Cristo del siglo XX es espiritualmente incapaz de resistir los rápidos cambios que la rodean porque no ha aprendido a ver la historia desde la perspectiva del reinado de Cristo. Por ello, interpreta los acontecimientos de su tiempo en términos completamente seculares. Se deja dominar por el miedo de forma mundana, y de esa misma manera intenta liberarse de él. En este proceso, Dios no es más que un benefactor paliativo.
