So, they rented a bus and we went to his lecture. I got to meet Dr. Schaeffer and his wife Edith. Who signed the book I brought there? There were many things I read in the book at that time but didn\u2019t connect with.\u00a0 As I was moved by brother Mark\u2019s email, I pulled out the book (couldn\u2019t find mine so I had to buy another one) and started reading it again.\u00a0 The things he said in the book about the church and its future decline was very eye opening with that is\u00a0 happening in the\u00a0 church today. It is simply incredible. The book was published in 1976.\u00a0 I don\u2019t think he was writing prophetically, but he was writing concerning from the history and decline in western thought and culture.\u00a0 He wrote on the church and religion moving away from what he called \u201cBiblical Christianity\u201d.\u00a0 As we survey the landscape of what many call Christianity and the Church today this dear brother saw the train coming to the station forty+ years ago.\u00a0 His thesis seems to set before the church the idea that if we continue with its current way of thinking and living, we will lose our identity, form and freedom.\u00a0 I would have to say when this was written the church and politics had just started dating.\u00a0 They seem to prophetically be headed toward a marriage of convenience. Our brother was saying, if we know what\u2019s happen in the past \u201cHow Should We Then Live\u201d to prevent this from happening.
