The Church in America Has Not Yet Truly Repented by Doc Yeager

The church in all generations is dependent utterly upon the favour of God and the light of his countenance. This is so in the case of the individual Christian. When we backslide and turn away from the Lord we are visited with his Fatherly chastisement and the hiding of his face. The way of return to God is always by way of confession, humility and repentance (James 4:6-10). What is true of the individual is also true of the corporate body. As someone has said: ‘The supreme duty of the church is to see that she offends not her God and her Saviour.’
