The drift away from Christ-centeredness, from active faith and from involvement in the life of the church is a very subtle thing. It is caused from going with the currents instead of against them. It is to be out of focus. It is to neglect the primary for the secondary. It is to major in trivia. It is to fail to be intentional about the one thing in our lives that we should be the most intentional about, our relationship with God.
“For this reason we must pay much closer attention to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away from it. For if the word spoken through angels proved unalterable, and every transgression and disobedience received a just penalty, how will we escape if we neglect so great a salvation?” Hebrews 2:1-3a (NASB)
