Self Indulgence.

The major problem facing the church today is the glorification of self indulgence. Revelation 2: 4, 5 reminds us that when the church abandons its first love then it will lose its candlestick. This is the reason the church seems to have lost its relevance today. The message is still relevant but the church has replaced self denial with self indulgence and they are no longer distinguishable from the rest of the world. I suppose at least self indulgence has led to the love of money so that the church is now making lots of money, even though they are no longer satisfying their brief by keeping the great commission.
