That and turning a blind eye towards sin. The main focus of the church has been the forgiveness of sin but no required repentance of it. People go to church without asking for forgiveness because they think there’s nothing wrong with them and Jesus forgives..etc…. Apathy towards sin increases to the point where see it now, anything goes. Gay marriage, pornography, sex outside marriage entitlement, other lusts…

Man will never defat sin. Christ the Victor defeated sin on the cross taking God’s full condemnation, judgement, and punishment for the sins of the whole world (1 John 2:2). God is NOT imputing the world’s sin to them but instead is reaching out in love to be reconciled to the world (2 Corinthians 5:17-19).

The only sin left is that of not receiving Christ. CHRIST, not sin, is the issue. “What will you with Christ?” has been the issue for 2000 years and is the issue today.
