“The modern church cannot preach this because the modern church desperately wants to be liked by the very world system God says stands under judgment. So pastors become public relations agents for divine sentimentality. They speak of love detached from holiness. Mercy detached from justice. Grace detached from repentance.”
(The Dissenter) There is something deeply unsettling about watching a man stand on a stage with a Bible in his hand, speaking with the cadence of a preacher while slowly dissolving the very attributes of God that make the gospel necessary in the first place. Not in one violent motion or overt act of apostasy where he rips pages from the Scriptures and throws them into the crowd like confetti. But far more subtle, polished, and marketable.
More “pastoral.”
That is what makes comments like this from Churchome pastor, Judah Smith so dangerous. He speaks of God’s wrath the way modern liberals speak of Confederate statues—embarrassing relics from a less enlightened age that need reinterpretation before the sophisticated people arrive.
CRN has compiled a list of false teachers and several other professing Christians we’ve warned you about over the years.
