    Does the American church today realize they are in charge of the culture in which we live? Just look around and you will quickly realize the church is losing the battle between good and evil. The culture in America is quickly going to hell and if the church were a professional football team, Christ’s Holy Rollers, pitted against the Antichrist Progressive Liberals, the Rollers would lose most of their games. What could possibly be the reason? There is no doubt the coaches are the problem because they have the right players. The Holy Rollers are also armed with the power of the Holy Spirit of truth, the greatest power on earth, but do not know how to use the power of the spirit of Christ. The Antichrist team has no spiritual power other than they are well trained in the art of lies, condemnations, and subterfuge. They play this game to physically steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10). Evil people are being coached by Satan every day to be more focused, brave, and committed. They are trained to accept the pain, the price of playing the game. This scares most shepherd coaches and many of their players into teeth-chattering silence.

     The actual problem is the body of Christ is not being coached by their Shepherds to be more focused, brave, and committed to the reality of spiritual warfare. The coaches seem to simply not know how to teach their players to “Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness,” to fight against evil and “speak as they ought to speak” (Ephesians 6:14-20). They do not know the game of life in representing Christ brings condemnation, but He promised His players and their coaches would be winning and blessed “…when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for Christ’s sake” (Matthew 5:11).

    This lack of coaching is evidenced by the majority of the body of Christ. They do not know this power exists nor how to use the power of the Holy Spirit to deter and even defeat evil in the communities in which they live. They are not being coached to “Submit to God. Resist the devil, and Satan will flee from you” (James 4:7). Shepherds are not totally focused on teaching the body of Christ their greatest weapon against Satan is to “Go …and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that Christ has commanded you” (Matthew 28:19-20).

    The proof is in the details. Studies show ninety-five percent of the people attending church are already saved, and most of the new people come from other churches. Church services normally begin with singing songs so attendees can feel the spirit of God. This is good, however most of today’s praise songs are about the greatness of God, encouraging virtuous living, and what Christ can do for you. Then most of the sermons are focused on the greatness of God, piety, and what Christ can do for the attendees in this church while offering salvation to the few lost. The attendees are then encouraged to invite other people to church, so they can come, be saved, tithe and serve in this Church. This is all praiseworthy to a point, but is focused on what Christ can do for the people who attend this church. Do Shepherds recognize this as pietism?[1]
