The Foundations - Salvation

The Foundation of our Salvation.

What I think we see in America is that the church is at a low point in influence in our culture right now.   I think the main cause of the situation is a complete lack of understanding of what our Salvation means in the church.  One thing that evangelicalism has done has brought a lot of people in to God's Kingdom and eternal life.  These people have been told now that you've said this prayer you're not going to hell when you die, you're going to heaven and at some point Jesus is coming back and he's going to take all of His people in something called the rapture, so all we have to do is basically hang on until he gets us out of here.  That is a very defensive mentality and a lack of understanding of what Salvation is all about.
