Wilderness Christians
NOTE: 4 marks of a wilderness Christian.
1) His body is with the church, but his mind and heart are still in Egypt!
ILLUS: They are like a compass in a land of two norths. They vacillate between the two readings and thus constantly wander!
James 1:8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.
2) Wilderness Christians do not have enough faith to believe that God can deliever!
3) Wilderness Christians contribute little to the Lord’s work, but constantly complain.
4) Wildness Christians unite to oppose God’s leadership!
Isaiah 31:1 Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; and stay on horses, and trust in chariots, because they are many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong; but they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the Lord!
QUOTE: Instead of marching through life as conquerors, they meander through life as wanderers and never enjoy the fullness of what God has planned for them.
