The problem can be called by many names. The men of our generation have had a failure of nerve. They have abdicated their responsibilities, and we are consequently in the midst of a crisis of leadership. Men have fallen, to use the biblical term, into the sin of unbelief. God has always promised tremendous blessings for those who keep his covenant faithfully but, to be blunt, men no longer believe Him. We have fallen so far away from his Word that we no longer even know what a covenant is—still less the terms of His covenant with us and the nature of covenant reality around us.
