A.W. Tozer emphasizes the danger of churches conforming to societal changes, arguing that true progress comes from those who refuse to adjust to worldly standards. He points out that the most impactful figures in history, including Jesus, were often seen as maladjusted, highlighting that the call to follow Christ requires a rejection of worldly norms. Tozer warns against the pressure to conform, suggesting that those who adjust lose their value and effectiveness in the world. He encourages believers to stand firm in their faith and resist the temptation to compromise their beliefs for acceptance.
