Our religious leaders must recognize this ardent desire. The evangelism of
nowadays it seems to have raised the altar and divided the sacrifice into pieces, without noticing, perhaps,
that there is no fire on the summit of Mount Carmel. But thank God because there are some who
They worry about it. They are those who love the altar, and delight in sacrifice, and are not
Conformed because they still do not see the fire coming down. What they want, above all things, is the
presence of God More than anything else, they want to like the "penetrating sweetness" of love
of Christ, of which the prophets wrote and the psalmists sang.
There is no lack today of good biblical teachers who teach correctly
doctrine of Christ, but many of them seem to be content, year after year with teaching the
foundations of the faith, without noticing that in his ministry there is a lack of the Presence, or anything in his
own lives that is extraordinary or supernatural. They exercise their ministry among believers

I say it with love, but in our pulpits there is a lack of spiritual quality. Our times are
similar to those of Milton, who made him exclaim, "The hungry sheep look

once a time when the spiritual temperature was so low. In large
sectors of the church the art of true worship has been lost, and instead they have put a
strange and spurious thing called "program!" This word has come from the theater and the circus, and
Unfortunately, it applies to the type of services that today go through "adoration."
The healthy and correct exposition of the Bible is imperative in the church of the living God. Without

But such exposure can be done in a way that leaves listeners void of true
spiritual food. Souls do not feed only on words, but on God himself, and while
Believers do not find God in a personal experience, the truths they hear do not

we get to know God, and that we can delight with his presence and like how sweet
