One only has to take a brief survey of the American church landscape to clearly see how far gone is the visible church. Whether it’s messages of health, wealth, and prosperity, purpose-driven mania, or man-centered foolishness, or churches saturated with liberalism, postmodernism, or paganism, the church visible is fatally ill.
