This podcast explains why we need correction in the church. Most pastors and elders today will never correct a member who is living in sin because their goal is to keep up church attendance and offerings. The true bride of Christ will confront and correct and even rebuke one who is sinning and will remove that member from the church if they are not repentant of their sin. The false bride spoils her children by allowing them to do as they please without any correction or rebuke for their sin. This is why the modern American church is so filled with hyprocrites today. False teachings like "once saved always saved" or "we are all just sinners saved by grace" or "just accept Christ and you wil go to heaven" or "just believe and you are saved" or "we will not judge your sin we just love you" and things like this have caused the church to be filled with liars, adulterers, fornicators, pornographers, gossips, homosexuals and angry, greedy, bitter, jealous, and lustful people who love the world and it's ways more than God. The gospel has been watered down to such an extent that sin is now ignored and repentance is rarely ever mentioned. Therefore the church of today has become a religious social club and is on the broad way that leads to destruction.
Jer 23:21 "I did not send these prophets, But they ran. I did not speak to them, But they prophesied. Jer 23:22 "But if they had stood in My council, Then they would have announced My words to My people, And would have turned them back from their evil way And from the evil of their deeds.
