“THE GREAT DEPARTURE”
2 TIMOTHY 4:1-2
INTRO: There has never before in the history of the professing church been
such a great departure as we are seeing now. Satan is working over-
time in his work of deception and destruction. In our text, Paul warns
Timothy, “Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times
some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and
doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience
seared with a hot iron.” Warren Wiersbe writes, “Throughout Paul’s
letters, the Spirit speaks ‘in stated words’ (expressly) that the church
will see apostasy, a falling away from the true faith…The word ‘depart’
in the Gk. Gives us our English word ‘apostasy.’ He points out too the
cause for the apostasy—not the ‘growing intelligence of scholars’ but
the satanic influence of demons so that professed believers deny the
basic doctrines of the Bible. The problem is not with the head but
with the heart!” (1)
The passage before us sounds out a great warning to each true
believer in Christ Jesus. Notice what the writer is talking about: A
great departure. Departure from what? THE FAITH. The teachings of
God’s Holy Word. Also note that this departure comes from within not
from without. It is talking about false teachers within the church
itself. Not false doctrines and philosophies from unbelievers in the
world, but within the professing church, within the sphere of religion.
God’s Spirit is warning us that some preachers and teachers will turn
away from the faith. They will turn away from the Lord Jesus, His
Virgin birth, death and resurrection. They will deny salvation by grace
through faith in the finished work of Christ. They will deny that Christ
will return for His own.
There is a Jesus Seminar composed of 100 so-called scholars. . .
Various groups throughout the United States. They meet, as I
understand it, twice a year. Recently, that group made an
announcement: that in the opinions of these scholars, Jesus never
promised to return to earth. . . will not return to earth. . . and never
indicated that He might. "How am I supposed to react to a statement
like that?" you ask. I'll tell you exactly how. All they are saying is that
God is this universe can't communicate accurately. . And if He can't
you and I are up the creek without a paddle. . . and so are they! That's
all it means!
Paul warned Timothy that those who shall depart are those who once
had the faith or professed the faith. You cannot move away from
something unless you are first there. One of the strangest aspects of
modern popular "evangelicalism" is its refusal to separate from error.
The relationship of many "evangelical" leaders with modernist Robert
Schuller is an example of this. Schuller reinterprets the doctrines of
the Word of God to conform with his self-esteem philosophy. His Christ
is a Jesus who provides men with self-esteem. Schuller's gospel is the
replacement of negative self concepts with positive ones. To Schuller,
sin is merely the lack of self-esteem. To Schuller, the greatest evil is to
call men sinners in a biblical fashion and thereby injure their self-
esteem. Schuller is a universalist who believes that all people are the
children of God. His goal is to help each person understand and enjoy
this "fact." In spite of Schuller's rejection of the Word of God and his
vast unscriptural influence in our society, large numbers of
"evangelical" leaders promote him and work hand-in-hand with him.
Billy Graham has frequently appeared with and praised Schuller. In
1983, Schuller sat in the front row of distinguished guests invited to
honor Graham's 65th birthday. In 1986 Schuller was invited by
Graham to speak at the International Conference for Itinerant
Evangelists in Amsterdam. Other featured speakers included many of
today's most prominent evangelical leaders, including Bill Bright,
Leighton Ford, and Luis Palau. Schuller was featured on the platform
of Graham's Atlanta Crusade in 1994.
Southern Baptist leader W.A. Criswell endorsed Schuller's ministry in
1981 in an ad in Christianity Today's Leadership magazine. He said, "I
know Dr. Schuller personally. He's my good friend. I've spoken on his
platform. I'm well acquainted with his ministry. If you want to develop
fruitful evangelism in your church; if you want your laity to experience
positive motivation and ministry fulfilling training, then I know,
without a doubt, that you will greatly benefit from the Robert Schuller
Film Workshop." A year prior to that, Criswell also endorsed a book by
Schuller's mentor, self-esteem theologian Norman Vincent Peale.
On April 29, 1980, Robert Schuller appeared with popular evangelical
and charismatic leaders Bill Bright, D. James Kennedy, James
Robison, Jim Bakker, Rex Humbard, Pat Robertson, Pat Boone, Nicky
Cruz, David du Plessis, Demos Shakarian, and Thomas Zimmerman
(Assemblies of God) at the Washington for Jesus Rally. Joining them
was independent Baptist pastor Jerry Falwell. Many of the Promise
Keepers speakers and leaders are connected with Schuller. For
example, John Maxwell, Jack Hayford, and Randy Phillips were among
the keynote speakers at the Men's Conference '95 (March 2-4, 1995)
held at Schuller's Crystal Cathedral. Schuller also spoke at the
conference.
Bill Hybels of the Willow Creek Community Church near Chicago
credits Schuller as an inspiration for his work, has promoted Schuller
in various ads in Christianity Today, and is a frequent speaker at
meetings organized by Schuller. For example, in 1996 Hybels was on
the staff of Schuller's annual Institute for Successful Church
Leadership. Hybels is one of the chief promoters of churches which
cater to the desires of the people. He started his church by taking a
survey of the community and building a "church" which would satisfy
what the people wanted in a church. A Chicago sociologist said Hybels
preaches a very upbeat message--"a salvationist message, but the idea
is not so much being saved from the fires of hell. Rather, it's being
saved from meaninglessness and aimlessness in this life. It's more of a
soft-sell." Hybels' church does not have conventional worship. It has
no altar, no choir, organ, hymnals, or song books. Its music ranges
from rock to jazz to country to classical. It is no wonder that Hybels
would love Robert Schuller and his self-esteem message. The stranger
fact is that Hybels is frequently recommended by and speaks with
those who claim to be Bible based. He spoke at Dallas Seminary's
1989 Pastors Conference, for example. Hybels has also spoken at
Moody Bible Institute's Founder's Week and has taught his philosophy
of church growth as a faculty member of MBI's graduate school.
Schuller's 1996 autobiography, My Soul's Adventure with God, was
endorsed by Paul Crouch, Jack Hayford, John Wimber, and popular
Southern Baptist leader W.A. Criswell. The fact that so many
"evangelical" leaders treat Schuller as a brother in Christ is evidence of
their blindness. Christ warns us not to follow blind leaders. "And if the
blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch" (Matthew 15:14).
(Updated May 20, 2002 (First published February 7, 1998) (David
Cloud, Fundamental Baptist Information Service, P.O. Box 610368,
Port Huron, MI 48061) I want you to consider with me this morning,
THE GREAT DEPARTURE. Note with me three things:
THIS IS A:
(1) DEPARTING FROM CHRIST
1 TIMOTHY 4:1a—“Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the
latter times some shall depart from the faith…”
*Paul warned Timothy that this was not a possibility but a reality that
would occur. And the sad truth is that not only will some preachers and
teachers depart from the faith, but also many professing saints. I want
you to know that this departure does not begin as a great departure but
as a subtle one. It starts:
A. WHEN WE FAIL TO STAND FOR CHRIST. There should be no
question in anyone’s mind that knows us where we stand in our
relationship with God! William Barclay said, “In the Christian life there
must be the courage which will never retreat and the love which will
never fail” (2).
ILLUS: A man died! All the people where he worked and all his
neighbors came to his funeral; people who had known him for
years. When the obituary was read it reflected that he was a
member of a church. His friends and associates were shocked.
He had never once identified himself as a Christian. Let me
ask you this morning three questions:
• Are you saved?
• Does God know you are saved?
• Do others know you are saved?
The Apostle Paul tell us in Ephesians 5:5-11—“Let no man deceive you
with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God
upon the children of disobedience. Be not ye therefore partakers with
them. For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord:
walk as children of light: (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and
righteousness and truth;) Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord. And
have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather
reprove them.” Oliver B. Greene in his commentary on Ephesians
writes concerning v11 of Ephesians 5, “Verse 11 is not a suggestion—it
is a positive and direct command…We are not to fellowship with the
enemies of Jesus. Born again Christians are not to fellowship with the
lust of the flesh and the ungodliness of the world. Friendship with the
world is spiritual adultery against God. We are not to fellowship with
liberals, modernists, and haters of God, deniers of the faith” (3).
WE are to STAND WITH CHRIST and STAND FOR CHRIST! The
departure from the faith begins subtly when we fail to stand for Christ.
B. WHEN WE FAIL TO SHARE CHRIST. Stephen Neill said, “It is not
open for any layman to say, ‘I cannot be an evangelist.’ If he is a
Christian, he must be a witness. If he is not willing to be a witness, it
is time he gave up calling himself a Christian” (4). Psalm 107:2 says,
“Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom he hath redeemed from
the hand of the enemy.” If we truly are HIS, then we are departing
from the faith if we fail to share HIM with others!
ILLUS: The world has more winnable people than ever before ... but it
is possible to come out of a ripe field empty-handed. -- Donal
McGavran. Leadership, Vol. 12, no. 4.
C. WHEN WE FAIL TO SHINE FOR CHRIST. Jesus said in Matthew
5:16—“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good
works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” The word SHINE in
the Greek here means “to beam, to radiate brilliantly.” Let your holy
life, your pure conversation, and your faithful instructions, be
everywhere seen and known. Always, in all societies, in all business, at
home and abroad, in prosperity and adversity, let it be seen that you
are real Christians (Albert Barnes’ Notes on the Bible).
ILLUS: One thing God detests is the religion of words. It was Robert
E. Speer who said: "After thirty years of leadership in
Christian work, it is my conclusion and conviction that the
greatest missionary problem is just the failure of Christian
people to live up to their profession."
We must by the help of God and leadership of the Holy Spirit live holy
lives and let our light shine bright for His glory!
ILLUS: It has been said: "The stars do not shout; they only shine."
Any Christian, however obscure, can be a light to those
around him and thus attract and guide men to the harbor of
peace. "Let your light so shine before men that they may see
your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." --Topical
Illustrations
How should we shine?:
1. By A Consistent Walk. By our lifestyle. Where we go, who we go
with, what we do. As Philippians 1:27a tells us, “Only let your
conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ…” The word
conversation in the Greek there means “manner of life” or “lifestyle.”
ILLUS: Hugh McIntosh said, “A genuine Christian ought to be as
distinguishable amongst his fellows as is a civilized man
among savages” (5).
2. By A Consistent Talk. Ephesians 5:1-4 says, “Be ye therefore
followers of God, as dear children; And walk in love, as Christ also
hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a
sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour. But fornication, and all
uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you,
as becometh saints; Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting,
which is not convenient; but rather giving of thanks.” We should not
say one thing and do something else.
ILLUS: Aesop, the ancient storyteller, told this fable: Once upon a
time, a donkey found a lion's skin. He tried it on, strutted
around, and frightened many animals. Soon a fox came
along, and the donkey tried to scare him, too. But the fox,
hearing the donkey's voice, said, "If you want to terrify me,
you'll have to disguise your bray." Aesop's moral: Clothes
may disguise a fool, but his words will give him away.—
--Traditional.
D. WHEN WE FAIL, IF NEED BE, TO SUFFER FOR CHRIST. 2
Timothy 3:12 tells us, “Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus
shall suffer persecution.” So often we shrink from possibility that we
might be called upon to suffer for our faith. But Jesus himself told us
that facing persecution for living for Him should not surprise us, “If
the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. If ye
were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are
not of this world, but I have chosen you out of this world, therefore the
world hateth you. Remember the word I said unto you, The servant is
not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also
persecute you; if they have kept my sayings, they will keep your’s also.
But all these things will they do unto you for my name’s sake, because
they know not him that sent me.”
Being true to God landed the three Hebrew children in the fiery
furnace, Daniel in the lion’s den, and Paul in prison.
ILLUS: We must never forget that the word persevere comes from the
prefix per, meaning through, coupled with the word severe. It
means to keep pressing on, trusting God, looking up, doing
our duty—even through severe circumstances (6).
The hymnwriter, Isaac Watts wrote:
“Must I be carried to the skies on flowery beds of ease,
While others fought to win the prize, and sailed the
bloody seas?” (Isaac Watts, All-American Church Hymnal, p.
316)
(2) DEPARTING FROM THE CHURCH
HEBREWS 10:25—“Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves
together, AS THE MANNER OF SOME IS; but exhorting one
another: and so much the more, as ye see the day
approaching.”
*To neglect Christian meetings is to give up the encouragement and help of
other Christians. We gather together to share our faith and strengthen
each other in the Lord. As we near the end of the age and as we get closer
to the day when Christ will return, we may face many spiritual struggles,
tribulations, and even persecution. Anti-Christian forces will grow in
strength. Difficulties should never be excuses for missing church
services. Rather, as difficulties arise, we should make an even greater
effort to be faithful in attendance (7).
ILLUS: 40% of American adults attend church in a typical weekend. (2000)
From the mid-eighties to the mid-nineties, church attendance was
on a roller coaster ride. In 1986, 42% of adults attended a church
service during a typical week in January. Attendance rose steadily,
reaching a peak of 49% in 1991, before beginning a very slow but
steady descent back to 40% in January, 2000. ()
*What are some important things we should do to keep us active in our
church?:
A. WE SHOULD LOVE OUR CHURCH. A church is like a bank. The more
you put into it the more interest you have.- _Pulpit Helps_, Nov. 1980.
Now most of us would agree that we love our Church, but here are some
things we will never hear in our Church or any other Church for that
matter:
ILLUS: THINGS YOU NEVER HEAR IN CHURCH
1. Hey! It's my turn to sit in the front pew.
2. I was so enthralled, I never noticed your sermon went 25 minutes over time.
3. Personally I find witnessing much more enjoyable than golf. 4. I've decided to give our church the $500 a month I used to
send to TV evangelists.
5. I volunteer to be the permanent teacher for the junior high
Sunday school class.
6. Forget the denominational minimum salary, let's pay our
pastor so he can live like we do.
7. I love it when we sing hymns I've never heard before!
8. Since we're all here, let's start the service early.
9. Pastor, we'd like to send you to this Bible seminar in the
Bahamas.
10. Nothing inspires me and strengthens my commitment like
our annual stewardship campaign!- -source: unknown
All jokes aside we should love our Church dearly! It is the Christian’s
place of renewal, rejoicing, refueling, and reflection. We should love our
Church so much that nothing can keep us from being there when the
Body of Christ meets together.
B. WE SHOULD SUPPORT OUR CHURCH. With what?:
1. Time (Psalm 90:12; Colossians 4:5).
ILLUS: The empty pew, your vacant place at the church, is a vote with
the world and against the Christ. The world that is opposed to
Christ asks nothing more from you in its enmity to Christ than
that you do what Thomas did--stay away. "I am an Empty Pew.
I vote for the world as against God. I deny the Bible. I mock at
the preached Word of God. I rail at Christian brotherhood. I
laugh at prayer. I break the Fourth Commandment. I am a
witness to solemn vows broken. I advise men to eat drink and
be merry, for tomorrow they die. I join my voice with every
atheist and rebel against human and divine law. I am an Empty
Pew. I am a grave in the midst of the congregation. Read my
epitaph and be wise." --McCartney
2. Talent. We must employ the talents that God has gifted each one of
us with for the glory of God! 1 Peter 4:10 says, “As every man hath
received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good
stewards of the manifold grace of God.” The Apostle Paul said in
Ephesians 4:7, 11-12—“But unto every one of us is given grace
according to the measure of the gift of Christ. And he gave some,
apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some,
pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of
the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.” Notice what the
Bible tells us is the purpose of these gifts, “For the perfecting of the
Saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of
Christ.” Each member is needed. Each gift must be employed for
Our Church to be successful!
Listen to the words of this poem:
Hide not thy talent in the earth,
However small it be;
Its faithful use, its utmost worth,
God will require of thee.
His own, which He hath lent on trust,
He asks of thee again;
Little or much, the claim is just,
And thine excuses vain.
Go, then, and strive to do thy part,
Though humble it may be;
The ready hand, the willing heart,
Are all heaven asks of thee.
- William Cutler
3. Treasures (1 Cors. 16:2; 2 Cors. 9:7).
ILLUS: The day the church treasurer resigned the church asked the
local grain elevator manager to take the position. He agreed
under two conditions:
-That no treasurer's report would be given for the first year.
-That no questions be asked about finances during that year.
The people were surprised but finally agreed since most of
them did business with him and he was a trusted man. At
the end of the year he gave his report:
* The church indebtedness of $228,000 has been paid.
* The minister's salary had been increased by 8%.
* The Cooperative Program gifts has been paid 200%.
* There were no outstanding bills.
* And there was a cash balance of $11,252!
Immediately the shocked congregation asked, "How did you
do it? Where did the money come from?" He quietly
answered: "Most of you bring your grain to my elevator.
Throughout the year I simply withheld ten percent on your
behalf and gave it to the church in your name. You didn't
even miss it!" "Do you see what we could do for the Lord if
we were all willing to give at least the tithe to God, who really
owns it?" And so the new treasurer had made his point.—
Adapted from A Sourcebook for Stewardship Sermons, by
James E. Carter.
C. WE SHOULD PRAY FOR OUR CHURCH (James 5:16). Each new day
we should lift each other’s names out to God. We should pray that we
all remain submissive to the Spirit, strong in the Faith, and serving God
with all fervor.
ILLUS: No man should be alone when he opposes Satan. The church
and the ministry of the Word were instituted for this purpose,
that hands may be joined together and one may help another. If
the prayer of one doesn't help, the prayer of another will. –
Martin Luther, "Martin Luther--The Early Years," Christian
History, no. 34.
Prayer is essential to the life of the Church. The members of the Body
of Christ should be able to count on others for support and prayer. Our
Church should stay alert to pray for all the needs of our members.
D. WE SHOULD WORK IN OUR CHURCH. When Nehemiah led a
company after the captivity to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem, it was
said of the them, “..for the people had a mind to work.” I wish that could
be said in every Bible-believing Church. But it seems it is hard to get
people involved in the work of the Lord in the days we now live.
ILLUS: What the Church Needs Today
More tithes and fewer drives.
More action and less faction.
More workers and fewer shirkers.
More backers and fewer slackers.
More praying and less straying.
More of God's plans and less of man's.
More burden-bearers and fewer tale-bearers.
- Exerpted in Pulpit Helps,
April, 1996, p. 8
In the work of the Lord each member is needed. NO One is insignificant
or unnecessary.
ILLUS: A conductor was rehearsing his great orchestra. The organ was
rolling, giving beautiful melody. The drums were thundering.
The trumpets were blaring out. The violins were singing
beautifully. Suddenly something seemed wrong. Someone in the
orchestra had thought, With all this going on, I can rest a while.
This is a rehearsal anyway. The conductor threw up his arms
and said, "Where's the piccolo?" The piccolo player said, "I'm
obscure. I don't amount to much. With all of this going on, I
don't have to keep playing." But the one with the trained ear
said, "Every one of us is necessary." When you and I feel
obscure, we must remember God has something significant for
our lives, and we need to respond. -- Gordon Johnson, "Finding
Significance in Obscurity," Preaching Today, Tape No. 82
E. WE SHOULD COMPLIMENT OUR CHURCH. The word compliment
means “to show regard for, to pay a compliment to.” We should never
be part of the problem in the Church, but always part of the solution.
When we tell others that we a member of Meadowside Baptist Church we
should reflect the Love of the Savior and the Light of His Word through
our lives.
ILLUS: Stephen Brown explains that when a group of thoroughbred
horses face attack, they stand in a circle facing each other
and, with their back legs, kick out at the enemy. Donkeys do
just the opposite; they face the enemy and kick each other! How
often the church does just that -- ignoring the real enemy while
we attack fellow believers.
In this GREAT DEPARTURE, We see A DEPARTING FROM CHRIST, A DEPARTING FROM THE CHURCH, and finally…
(3) DEPARTING FROM CONVICTIONS
ACTS 20:24—“But none of these things move me, neither count I my
life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy,
and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to
testify the gospel of the grace of God.”
*Paul’s determination in Acts 20:24 should be the determination of each
believer. Paul, according to v23, was going “bound in the spirit unto
Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there.” But despite
his uncertainty, he was determined to stand by his convictions! We
should hold fast to our convictions also. We should never let our
convictions slide!
A. WHAT ARE CONVICTIONS? Convictions are what you believe to be
right. Someone has said, “What a man believes, he will die for. What a
man merely thinks, he will change his mind about” (8).
ILLUS: Pastor A.R. Bernard, of Brooklyn, NY, taught me the difference
between convictions and preference. 1. People who live by
preference can be negotiated out of their preferences.
Convictions are non-negotiable. 2. People who live by
preferences weaken under pressure. Those with conviction
grow stronger. 3. People who live by preference always dislike
those who hold convictions. - Edwin Louis Cole, Real Men
(Thomas Nelson Publishers, 1992) 47
B. WHAT ARE SOME CONVICTIONS WE SHOULD HOLD? We should
have convictions about:
1. What’s Right and What’s Wrong. WE are now living in a society
where there is no absolutes about being right or wrong. Many say
that there is no longer any black and white areas only an ugly gray.
But we must stand by our convictions of what the Bible teaches us.
If the Bible says it is right, IT IS RIGHT! And if the Bible says it is
wrong, IT IS WRONG!
ILLUS: There is today an evangelical rationalism which says that
the truth is in the Word and if you want to know truth, go
learn the Word. If you get the Word, you have the truth.
That is the evangelical rationalism that we have in
fundamentalist circles: "If you learn the text you've got the
truth." This evangelical rationalist wears our uniform. He
comes in wearing our uniform and says what the Pharisees
... said: "Well, truth is truth and if you believe the truth
you've got it." Such see no beyond and no mystic depth, no
mysterious or divine. They see only, "I believe in God the
Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth; and in Jesus
Christ His only Son, our Lord." They have the text and the
code and the creed, and to them that is the truth. So they
pass it on to others. The result is we are dying spiritually.
To know the Truth, we must "know" the Son. -- A. W. Tozer
in Power for Living (Oct. 16, 1977). Christianity Today, Vol.
33, no. 13.
2. The Word of God (2 Timothy 3:16). A. Z. Conrad said, “This Book
outlives, outloves, outlifts, outlasts, outreaches, outruns and
outranks all books. This Book is faith-producing. It is hope-
awakening. It is death-destroying. And those who embrace it find
forgiveness of sin” (9). We should hold strongly to our convictions of
Its great doctrines:
a. The Genesis Account of Creation (Genesis 1:1).
b. The Attributes of God.
c. The Virgin Birth, Vicarious Death and Victorious
Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
d. Sin.
e. The Sacredness of Marriage and the Home.
The lack of scriptural knowledge is the source of all evils in the church. -- John Chrysostom. Leadership, Vol. 16, no. 2 It is
imperative that we as 2 Timothy 2:15 instructs us, “Study to shew
thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” How can we know what we are to stand for if we don’t know what we believe?
CLOSING: There is a Great Departure taking place today. There is a
DEPARTURE FROM CHRIST, a DEPARTURE FROM THE CHURCH,
and a DEPARTURE FROM CONVICTIONS. Charles Spurgeon said,
“I would choose to be cut limb from limb sooner than see those
whom I have loved and honored fall from the faith. It is a bitter
thing to us who are ministers of Christ, it is our curse and plague,
it costs us sleepless nights and miserable days when we hear of
those that did run well apparently turn back to the world, who play
the Judas (10). May we go from here today resolved to remain true
to the Savior who loved us, died for us, and redeemed us!
