Check out this thread.
Doubt this guy is a Calvinist (his wife is also a preacher), but he has seen that the world really doesn't want to hear the truth.

I've heard of "hell-fire-and-damnation" sermons, but I've never seen a pastor preach a "hell-fire-and-damnation" Eulogy
Eulogy -- A laudatory speech or written tribute, especially one praising someone who has died.
What a sad state of a man when speaking well of someone is telling his relatives the he is in hell. As a greek expert, isn't the greek word for eulogy translated bless in our Bibles?

but he has seen that the world really doesn't want to hear the truth. I remember sitting at my brother in laws funeral..he was a drunk and a vile man that never went to church..The priest waxed on how Johnnie loved God ,his family and the church...and how we wili all "see " him again!
Standard fair..I thought well lots of YOU folks may see him again but I will not "Thank God"
Isn't interesting that if you ask most people (even "christians" )why they believe they will go to heaven that standard thought is that they are "good " or they "try" to do what is right..BUT If you then point out the carnal reprobate is in hell they get angry..
In their heart most men are univeralists they want to believe you can live like hell here and get rewarded anyway...Go figure

She says police didn't make any arrests, so she and her husband -- who may have a broken nose -- are taking out warrants. If they were members of his church, I would first throw 'em out formally--then tear 'em up with the law.
