Workers in southern Mexico built a church in 1564, thinking the area would be heavily populated. Unfortunately, a plague devastated the region and the church was abandoned. In 1966, a dam was built, and the resulting lake covered the building and hid it from view. Recently a drought caused water levels to drop and the church reappeared out of the waters like a revitalized shrine. Soon, however, the waters will rise and the church will again disappear beneath its murky waves.

The true Church of Jesus Christ will never be overwhelmed by the world. The waters may swirl around us, but the Lord has promised to build His Church and keep it strong until He returns.

One thing must be avoided at all costs. We mustn’t let the world seep into the Church. When we let the world dilute our Gospel and water down our values, we’ll disappear from sight. Let’s keep the Church holy—and wholly committed to Scripture.
