”For the LORD, the God of Israel, saith that he hateth putting away: for one covereth violence with his garment, saith the LORD of hosts: therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not treacherously. Ye have wearied the LORD with your words. Yet ye say, Wherein have we wearied him? When ye say, Every one that doeth evil is good in the sight of the LORD, and he delighteth in them; or, Where is the God of judgment?” | Malachi 2: 16-17

Modern preaching in mainstream religion is this: ‘God loves you and wants to save you if you will let him, and he sent Jesus to die for your sins. So if you will accept him as your personal savior and start living right and coming to church, you will be saved.’

This is the so-called gospel of every false preacher and false church throughout the world.

That false gospel is not only blasphemous and dishonoring to God and His Son, but is completely contrary to the Word of God and the Truth of the Gospel.

It is also contrary to good sense.

“And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.” (Matthew 1: 21)

What kind of ‘god’ is he, who wants to do something but cannot because puny man won’t let him?

That’s no ‘God’ at all, but a pathetic failure and an idol.

If I am more powerful than him, I am more god than he is.

“Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.” (1 Corinthians 13: 8)

What kind of god is he who needs to be ‘accepted’ by mortals?

Man is the one on trial, not God.

It is up to God to accept man, not vice versa.

And what kind of love is it that is helpless to do anything for me, or worse yet, stands by while I am perishing and will not save me?

Why, my love for my child is not that weak!

If I see her fall, I go pick her up.

If I see her in danger, I go save her from it.

And if the blood was shed for every person and some are now in hell, what good did it do?

“Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.” (Hebrews 9: 12)

Listen to what scripture says of God, Christ, His love and salvation. ‘GOD WILL WORK AND WHO SHALL LET IT?’ “Yea, before the day was I am he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall let it?” (Isaiah 43: 13)
