Amen. I have had people leave and have been criticized for my “negative” preaching. The thing is, I always preach sin as the context for the hope that God gives!
Dr. Paul Henebury
I am Founder of Telos Ministries, and Senior Pastor at Agape Bible Church in N. Ca.
Cultures are different. In the Olympia, WA area, Christians are very touchy-feely. They want to emphasize love more than holiness. They’re anxious to round the edges off a condemnation of sin, for fear it’ll make them seem “mean.” When you think back to seminary, and the discussions of “what is God’s most fundamental attribute” (if there is such a thing!), these people would answer “love - times infinity.” They’re so anxious to emphasize love they downplay sin, rebellion, and the consequences.
I didn’t see that so much in the Midwest.
Tyler is a pastor in Olympia, WA and works in State government.
