Macarthur On Contemporary Preaching
Contributed by Dr. Larry Petton on Jan 25, 2021 (message contributor)
"Many churches today are filled to overflowing with those who want their ears tickled with the myths of easy believism and so called positive thinking.
They come to have their egos fed and their sins approved, not to have their hearts cleansed and their souls saved.
They want only to feel good, not to be made good. Tragically, such myths serve to religiously insulate people from the true gospel and drive them still further from the Lord.
