When people visit the doctor, they expect a direct and accurate diagnosis.
If the physician doesn’t identify the disease and recommend drastic enough measures, it’s called malpractice.
But when people come to church, and the preacher diagnoses sin, recommending the radical remedy called repentance, people are offended.
They call it intolerant, narrow-minded, and judgmental.
I don’t want to stand before God one day guilty of spiritual malpractice.
I want to diagnosis sin as sin, no matter who doesn’t want to hear it.
I must command people to repent, in the name of Jesus, for their own good, and for the glory of God.
If you’re sleeping with someone that you’re not married to, you’ve got a disease.
The only remedy is repentance. I won’t excuse you because you “really love them”. Real love does what’s right…not what feels right.
If you’re not putting God first in your finances, you’re robbing God. You need to know that. It’s like a tumor that we’ve got to remove…immediately.
If you are full of bitterness, I can’t justify and excuse your lethal heart condition by blaming it on your past. We’ve got to cut you open and operate…right away.
Otherwise, I’m no Gospel preacher.
I’m just a quack.
