- He is guided by the spiritual values of the first generation.
- He does not have a habit of spending time with God in His
Word developing convictions about God from a personal relationship
with Him.
- He allows himrself to become dependent on the strength and
direction of others rather than on his own walk with God. Someone
else's strength and direction has become the sustenance of his
life rather than being a supplement to his walk with God.
- His spiritual values are borrowed, and when tested do not
hold or stand fast.
- This generation will often compromise their holiness or push
the line on righteousness, justifying themselves rather than
pursuing holiness and seeking godliness. The tests come like
this:
- How do I know who and what to trust?
- What will I do when they are not with me?
- What is my anchor for the storms?
- How do I communicate the truths to my children/students?
- Am I passing on a vital relationship with God in a timely
manner, or am I passing on what someone else has told me
when I want to see change for my interests? The real damage
is revealed in what this generation is able to pass on to
the next generation.
- What you have to pass on is diluted. These were also the
freshmen that I saw easily being lead astray into unwholesome
activities when left on their own at college.
