DEEPER LIFE

We live in an age

Of moral and spiritual crises

This is seen in the crime,

War and drug addiction, preoccupation with sex,

The disregard for authority the social upheavals

And racial strife, and the lack of moral

Understanding and concern.

Men and women have lost moral discernment,

Calling darkness light and evil, good

“Right” is what is ever acceptable by majority.

The church has come to resemble

The secular community in which it exists

And can no longer speak with moral

And spiritual authority to the community at large.

Why such moral and spiritual confusion?

Because there is no longer an objective moral

Authority teach the truth and to distinguish

Between right and wrong.

Men have lost faith in Holy Scripture,

So there remains no reliable, unchanging standard

Of right to measure conduct and character.

What is the solution?

Only an effusion of power from on high

Within the lives of Christian

Can deliver the contemporary church

From the moral spiritual chaos

Affecting the whole of mankind in this hour.

While multitude of Christians

Have received the baptism in the Holy Spirit,

Yet must have not attended God’s highest purpose,

For the baptism is only the door to something

Greater the deeper life, which a Spirit led life

Of total faith in God crucifixion of the “self life”

And growth into the fullness of God Himself.
