Preaching the severity of God, Why are we so afraid of?

Today we have abandon and sometimes even mock one of the most chearucial subject in the Word of God. The fact is, when we get on the subject of eternal judgment, most of us will have a hard time meditating on it. Because of our false view on the love of God , we think that the God we serve can't condemn anyone because of His kindness. But that is not true in the bible (John 3:18 His love is conditional). Or maybe we know it but we will still care not to, be motivated by it to live in holiness, care not to be move by it in going to the lost people, And will not care to preach it because many of us can't swallow it.

God is love of course but this doesn't mean that He has relented His promised fury against lawless unbelievers. Jesus came to seek, save and heal the lost , But unless we see that we are that we are spiritually lost and cancerous we will still not yet be available for His salvation, healing and solution. But how about the reply of one famous Pastor who said that if he has a disease, he don't want to hear more about his sickness but how he can be healed, so why bother preaching the consequences of sin why not just preach the solution? But that thinking is not that really correct the situation of us a lost people is that we care not about the solution because we crave on our sins, lost people will love his sins when he sees that their walking in a safe way , our sickness could be name as sin madness, look at Jer. 17:9 "The heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked..." . I remember one time while I was preaching near the north Caloocan city, There was one boy who heckled me and and wanted to stop me. I told Him that God loves him (after I convicted him w/ God's standards). And he said to me "I know" Then I told him that he doesn't love God, the boy replied to me "No, I love Him." Then I asked Him if he love's Him why does he watch porn movies? (That's what he boasted in us) And told him that if we say we know Him but doesn't obey Him we are liars (I john 2:4). Majority of us Filipinos have heard about God's wonderful plan and love but most of us responded with complacency in our sinful lifestyles. We think He is love so why be condemn as idolaters? Or being pervert? lustful? Drunkard? etc. And that is not just the responds of the unbelievers but those who are in the Church (Jude 4). I grew up in a born-church that has a lot of talk on God's love, but it doesn't show in their lives, majority of them are corrupt in their living but zealous for Church growth. Most of them praise God and speak in tongues loudly, but the reality of love and fear of God was not in them. Then we boast to to unbelievers that God loves them, but we don't love God and even loved the people w just want them to sit and play in our churches. Is that the reason most of us garbage the subject on the wrath of God? Because if He is really angry with the sinners (Ps 7:11) the hypocrites are not in safe also?

Friends we push the limits, Jesus is so grieve with the worldliness in the Church and with the complacency of the sinners. It is because we have forgotten to warn them that it is appointed for man once to die then the judgment. And because we are fed that preaching His severity is condemning. Then if it is condemning and harsh judging, why does Jesus spoke on it more than heaven, forgiveness, grace and love? Is He also a bible-basher according to our modern preaching standards? How about the prophets? John the baptist? the apostles? The Church fathers? Or maybe the reformers and the revivalist of the old? Are they all hate-mongers? Many Christians will appreciate Wesley, Whitefield, Moody, Finney. They will be quoted cause they use women, small groups or because they become instruments for awakenings. But many of us will not preach like them or most of the time will criticize those who preach like them as being unloving. Those Christians today who tolerate sins are hailed as loving, but those who reprove sin in order to show them the solution is are labeled as unloving.

How many open-air preachers and preacher of righteousness of this day are banned from the pulpits? They are condemned as heretics and not supported financially. This rejected believers are rejected by the organized institutional church because they preach the whole counsel of God. Thats what also happened to William Booth, And many of our preachers today will not mess themselves in that trouble so we keep on feeding people candies. Leonard Ravenhill is correct when he said that we had more star preachers than scarred preachers. But that can't be reconciled with the bible, Because the preaching of the cross is an offense to the unbelievers, and most of us are hailed and loved by the world ( That's why we recruited many scavengers and garbage form the world). Well why many compromising Pastors have big Churches? and that is a fruit. Well that doesn't mean if we are approve by the world then we are approve by God. Surely the standards of the hireling have poisoned the minds of many of us. So the vision of Christ is replaced by the vision of success and prosperity, But the one day the fire of God will show all the results of it.

What we need today is men and women of God that would seek after God and His righteousness. That are not compromisers but agonizers because the glory of God is downgraded by men. Get off with our people pleasing approach and gospel, Get off in playing with their emotions. Preach the whole counsel of God! Michael L. Brown is correct with his observations, that in the days Jonathan Edwards (1st great awakening). Most of their
preachers become hell-fire preachers that they had a great need for love of God preachers. But today most of us become love of God preachers that we are in desperate need of hell-fire preachers. God is loking for men and women that are solely after Him, to proclaim His truths, standarsd and good news! But will He find those people that are not after success and recognition? May we qualify for it!!!

Judgment is coming to the Philippines! (We need hell-fire preachers)

The filipino people are going to hell without a blow of trumpet from the Church of Jesus Christ. Could I change the quote from A.W. Tozer "Philippines is laughing her way to hell." (He said America). Why could we shut up for so long that this sons of hell like the iglesia ni manalo and soriano cult is making noise while we are so fed in our pretty little churches? While the cults are peddling their poisons in our households, our creeds about eternal woes is unheard.

This Idolatrous nation have gone so ripe for judgement but very few are speaking for the Lord Jesus . Yes God is love and I believe He loves the philippines but the filipinos love their idols, liquior, immorality , false religion, evil entertainment, homosexuality, fornication, hypocrisy and self centerdness. Soak in its sins and vileness we are boasting about our being only "Christian" (?) nation in asia. We think that the cause of the curses and plagues in this nation is because of corrupt politicians but we have never look upon ourselves on how this whole nation have forgotten and rabelled against God. The Idols in our houses and in our Churches what about that? (Exod 20:4) Do we not expect the curse and wrath of God to fall upon us because of that? Why not the protesters go to the office of the cbcp (Catholic baalites conference of the philippines) and ask them to stop leading this whole nation into sinning. We have seen how this whole nation have gone crazy over hayden kho halili fornicators scandal. And as the youth of this nation enjoying its liquior and heavy music their ancestors who are now in hell is pleading to Abraham to send people to warn them about the eternal burning hell that is waiting for them.

Oh may God be merciful to this nation that He might send revival and prophets to this nation. Lord we need national repentance!! PHILIPPINES REPENT AND FOLLOW JESUS!!!!
