Today many preachers are preaching the inspired word of God regardless of approval ratings. When we go to church, we expect to hear the word of God! Although we have the right to freedom of speech; many disagree with the Bible being preached in Church! Sounds like an OXY MORON to me! Yes, I believe in love and that the words preached should inspire,encourage,edify, and strengthen believers. However, the Bible is to correct too!:) What would our world look like if churches today just told everyone ITS OK TO SIN! GO AHEAD AND DO WHATEVER YOU THINK IS RIGHT!
You know some folks would think that means its ok to kill,steal and destroy!
Oh just give them a little pat on the back and some sugar and they will do the right thing!? NOT!
I am proud to say that my Pastor has a good balance in this matter!
He speaks the truth (spoken in the Bible) about the issues,however without rejecting the person.

Yes. Churches are too worried about political correctness. What I have just noticed in most people, they pretended to preach what is in the Bible but they act the opposite. They are what the Bible described wolves having the skin of a lamb. I think, if one will preach what is in the Bible, his actions must also reflect what he preach. But it doesn't mean that one has to be perfect to be able to preach. :D

I don't think it's just the church- I think everyone is too worried about political correctness! Things are being banned, we're not allowed to say certain words, and even our festivals have to be changed so that we don't "offend" people of different faiths.
In my opinion, it is the people who move to a certain country that should have to fit around the values of the country, rather than the country who has to fit around the values of the individual.
