A Call for Discernment

I have felt these topics weighing on my heart lately. I don't want to allow these "False Prophets" to damn people to Hell just because they don't know better. Hear this or don't, but I think everyone needs a warning. Take notes and study the scripture to determine if the words you are hearing are true, sound doctrine.
"as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which untaught and unstable people twist to their own destruction, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures." 2 Peter 3;16 (NKJV).
There is a huge difference between a gospel that accommodates our flesh and the true Gospel of Jesus Christ that transforms our souls.
Lately, it has become impossible to ignore the rise of deceptive, all-inclusive doctrines creeping into modern spaces. These teachings expertly twist the Word of God, offering a version of grace that requires no repentance, no surrender, and no cross. They preach a love that accepts everything, but scripture pulls no punches: to distort God's eternal truth is to invite judgment.
Tragically, we are seeing this compromise right in the pulpit. Many pastors today are refusing to preach the raw, unvarnished truth. Out of a fear of offending people or losing numbers, they go completely silent on the reality of sin—including biblical boundaries on sexuality. Furthermore, many refuse to touch the Book of Revelation, dismissing it as "too hard to understand" or "too controversial", stripping believers of the very blueprint and ultimate victory Christ gave us for the end times.
We even hear twisted teachings from pulpits claiming that displaying the Cross is like displaying an electric chair—reducing the ultimate symbol of our faith to nothing more than a tool of execution. What a dangerous distortion of truth. The Cross is not a symbol of defeat or secular death; it is the ultimate monument of divine love, justice, and absolute victory. It represents the place where the price for our sins was paid in full, where the power of darkness was permanently shattered, and where the curtain was torn so we could have direct access to a Holy God. To hide or shame the Cross is to hide the very power of the Gospel. As Paul boldly stated, "For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God."—1 Corinthians 1:18 (NKJV).
When a church becomes more worried about offending the culture than offending a Holy God, it ceases to be a lighthouse. The Apostle Paul warned us exactly of this timeline: "For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers;"— 2 Timothy 4:3 (NKJV).
As believers, we are called to love the sinner, but hate the sin. True Christian love does not mean validating, excusing, or remaining silent on the behaviors that separate a soul from God. Christ welcomed the broken, the lost, and the messy with open arms—but He always commanded them to "go and sin no more." We must love people enough to want them saved, while fiercely hating the sin that seeks to destroy and contaminate their lives.
The true Gospel is a beautiful, radical rescue mission. Yes, everyone is welcome at the feet of Jesus exactly as they are—but we are loved too much to be left there. True faith demands a willingness to lay down our old lives, hand over the keys to our hearts, and allow the Holy Spirit to uproot willful sin. Christ didn’t pay an agonizing price on the cross just to leave us comfortable in the chains He died to break.
This is our hour to be exceptionally wise and deeply vigilant. We are commanded to test everything against the unmoving bedrock of Scripture. Stay connected to the Vine, rely on the Holy Spirit for sharp discernment, and refuse to be swayed by watered-down truths.
Let us hold fast to what is good, lift high the Cross of Christ, extend mercy with caution, and walk boldly in the raw, transforming power of the one true King. 🙌🔥
"but others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire, hating even the garment defiled by the flesh." — Jude 1:23 (NKJV)
