The church today is allowing so much of the world in their
doors in the way that they do ministry, it rings true what Carter Conlon said in one of his
most famous messages “Run”
which was given after 9/11 in which he pleads for us to be so sensitive to the
truth of God that he states how “truth is fallen in the streets”. Truth is
crying out as wisdom does in the book of Proverbs
to all who are simple minded.
Pastors and teachers
are more concerned about trying to be relevant and they are compromising the
truth of the gospel, for a means of ungodly gain. (1
Tim 6:3-10)
The doctrine
of repentance is never taught, and so people are getting a watered down
truth that leads them to hell.
Where is the unction
to proclaim the truth- Leonard Ravenhill
People are going to church believing they are saved because
of what some wanna be pastor told them. They have been deceived
because the pastor didn’t love them enough to tell the truth.
The church is getting these hipster pastors that try so hard
not to offend and only teach a partial truth. When I say hipster I'm not saying
with the way the dress that condemns them but they are not “sold out” for the
kingdom, they are sold out for themselves. They must teach those that God has
given them the whole counsel of God.
All too often we hear them say “it’s
not my place to tell them, it Gods”. The truth of the matter is that Jesus
gave gifts to men to be bold for Him to speak and teach His truth with clarity.
If a man believes He is called by God to the ministry than he has an obligation
to be obedient to what that really is. 2
Tim 3:16
This is a serious matter, people lives are at stake, people’s
eternal lives, and these pastors are teaching a partial truth because they don’t
want to offend. Did not Jesus say that His Word would cause division? (Luke
12:49-53)
Did not Jesus who is the Word,
proclaim that there are sins that need to be repented of; and if that is the
case would we not want to know what they were; and if we are committing them
would we not want to repent (turn away) from them?
Why would we want to offend our Savior and do what He has
said not to do?
So the duty of a pastor of a teacher of Gods Holy Word is to
proclaim this truth; and by the way, Gods Word is not boring it doesn’t need
our spin on it to make it attractive; it does that on its own. Beware of teachers out there who
tell you how that shortened the message so it’s more palatable for the world,
they took secular songs and added Christian words to them, beware of those that
don’t preach the Word but give a motivational talks that only highlights their
life.
God is love and His grace and mercy for us is sufficient-His
Name is to be praised He alone is Worthy.
