mildly controversial subject
To: OrthodoxPresbyterian
It is impossible for me to disagree. I sometimes feel that a lot of churches are no longer "hospitals for sinners" but "country clubs for the self-righteous". Other folk just treat the church as a country club entirely.

Thanks!
Most of this sermon/article would not be regarded as controversial at all among most Reformed Baptists. It is one of the reasons why we are such separatists. (I suspect you already knew that.)
When Jonathan Edwards was used to light off the Great Awakening, by the way, it would appear (from subsequent events of the revival) that most of the churchgoers in Edwards' America were just plain lost.
