| Résumé : |
In the first century, Christ made a whip to drive the money changers out of the Temple. In the 20th century how would Christ respond to the church's growing preoccupation with material things? The Old Testament prophets charged Israel with idolatry, accusing her of prostitution to make their condamnation clear. The people of God had sold themselves to the allurements of political security, social acceptability and economic growth. Is it possible that the church today has begun worshiping the golden cow of materialism and success? In this prophetic book, John White ask us to consider wheter we, too, are worshiping the golden cow. |
