Out went the fire and brimestone, in came the neo pagan decadence. When did tolerating evil become a virtue? Most sermons will essentially advocate tolerance of the evil around you. When preachers cease to be counter cultural, especially in this era, they are worse than useless.
I think that many pastors are more concerned about their pension plan here on earth than their eternal rewards for faithfully preaching the word in season and out of season. In the sense that quite a number of churches are run by a deacon board, rather than a “thus saith the Lord”, it is to be expected that the preacher would be expected to tow the line and not offend the givers.
