Well, these words are still in use -- but by what demographic? Some people in the Church know them, but some don't. What's really important is, are they part of the vocabulary used or at least understood by the people I'm trying to reach with the Gospel? Am I speaking their language when I talk about Christ?
Hate to tell you this but I'm sitting across the street from Ryan's "Buffet" (#2) right now. ;)
