We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

The problem is that many people cling to the symbol but never understand the reality it is intended to represent. Most likely, tens of thousands of people have 'invited Christ into [their] hearts,' thinking that a mystical experience is what saves them. Then, they go on their merry way, living their lives as they did before. If you were to ask them, 'How do you know that you are going to heaven?' they would respond, 'Because I invited Christ into my heart.' But if you probe, there is nothing beneath the shallowness of that reply. They did what someone told them to do, but never really embraced the Savior.
Daniel Wallace

Pragmatism is another non-Christian philosophy that has found its way into the church. Since we can never know what is true or good, according to pragmatist philosophers, we should simply do “what works,” conceived of in material terms. This is an important strain of American philosophy, from the modernist John Dewey with his atheism and socialism to the postmodernist Richard Rorty with his relativism and leftist politics. Few Christians would agree with these philosophers if they listened to them, but simplified pragmatism can be heard constantly in church committee meetings, church-growth seminars, and books for pastors. “What works” — to increase church attendance, attract non-Christians, bring in more money, or achieve another goal — can trump all theological, historical, and biblical considerations.
