One of the great problems plaguing the "church" today is lack of vision. People have no clue what they are doing, why they do it, or where they are going....the church has this problem and it leads to division. Division creates dissension, confusion, and decline.
Why does this problem exist? Fear. Leaders fear speaking the Gospel truth. The fear is they will be seen as radical, asking too much, and they (the leaders) fear they will lose the "nickels and noses", (money and people).
In our Americanized gospel we are independent minded and self-service driven. The idea of devotion to another, complete and utter surrender to an unseen entity is preposterous!
Thus discouragement raises its ugly head and leaders fall by the wayside, flee the battlefield, and fuel the apostasy.
So what is the vision? Oh my! It's so simple! It is laid out with crystal clear clarity in the Bible.....you have to search no more! No more discouragement! Victory can be found! Spiritual success can be yours! Simple decide to be true to the Word and the way will open up.....what's the vision? Matthew 28:16-20! Go!!!
