So many churches have stopped being a light for the World to find truth. Instead of changing the World, so many are indistinguishable from it.

True. The old song is titled “Onward Christian Soldiers”, not “Onward Christian Sissies”.

The churches today are full of people that don’t want to admit their sin. The church body knows of the sin, but doesn’t speak of it. Pastors and elders seldom go to the their fallen member to call their sin out for repentance and prayer. Why is this happening in the churches?

Because pastors risk being sued over it.

I know of one pastor who was, decades ago, over church discipline of a member caught in ongoing, unrepentant adultery. He was a prominent figure in the Christian community and when he was called on his sin, he sued the pastor and the board baled on the pastor.

It about destroyed the pastor and his family. His kids still bear the scars from that and are embittered about churches.

It's a sad commentary when this sort of thing happens but I suspect stuff like this is why so many don't speak out like they should.

C’mon man, Church leaders are too busy caving in to the COVID demands of atheistic governors to worry about all that other stuff
