Exactly why I Say 'Stop Preaching God's Love'?
Stop Preaching God's Love, For Heaven's Sake
The Root Problem In The Church Today
My spirit is, and has been troubled regarding the condition of the Church over the last 30 years or so, and how badly we have taken on all sorts of traditions of men. These also, are customs that annul The bible as Jesus reprimanded the Pharisees for. I have been feeling burdened by God to write and expose what I believe to be the major or foundational cause that will allow for us to construct these unbiblical traditions.
However, when I have talked over these things with church leaders and Christians, whilst they recognize that we now have a candie-coated gospel message, they just can't see the magnitude of the problem. It imperils their basic assumptions much too much. I needed to write a data type book, with plenty of facts and figures demonstrating what I am trying to say.
Over my many years, I have not read through many publications of various established Christian writers. I examine my Bible in different versions and I have built up a great reference library of Bible dictionaries, Greek & Hebrew dictionaries, commentaries and many other books.
But roughly four years ago in the middle of a personal disaster, I needed Spiritual encouragement and extended my business Facebook profile to friends. I acquired roughly one hundred friends and friends of friends. It was a good support network, but more than that, I discovered Christians who thought like I did. I was surprised. There were memes of well known Christian authors and church leaders, that I recognized, but had not read through any of their publications. These were so corroboratory for me, so I have sited a lot of them in this book.
'Stop Preaching God's Love, For Heaven's Sake'
My prime argument is that, we have read, preached, written, talked, taught and proclaimed, much too much on the subject of how 'God loves us soooo much and has a wonderful plan for our life'.
This has then shoved other imperative qualities of God, into the fringes - God's justice, hell, conquering sin, obeying God's Word, enduring troubles, how fundamentally evil sin is, how vital Godliness is, etc..... and it has prompted us to comprehend the Scriptures poorly in a host of ways. The church have formulated incorrect doctrines that guide our lives and our churches. Matters like, never judge a person; never correct sinfulness; unity no matter what; a person that states anything that might offend someone is not 'helpful'...etc.
