LOGICAL REASONING
People
authorized to conduct religious worship services spend too much time teaching
about hell in church, thereby making it the attraction. Being in the devil's
grasp should not be the message, but being in God's favor. Parishioners flock
with great anticipation to hear the deeds of the evil one as if attending a
horror movie. God cannot use us if He loses others in the process. Those gifted
with a teaching anointing should not use this power to control. It should be
used to serve God. To spend our limited time teaching on Limbo, Lust, Gluttony,
Greed, Anger, Heresy, Violence, Fraud and Treachery, while ignoring that the
worst of these sins is the betrayal of trust undermines true wisdom. As with
subliminal advertising, "a subliminal message is a signal or message
designed to pass below (sub) the normal limits of perception." The goal of
the church is to teach that, it is better to serve in Heaven than to have power
to direct or determine any means of control in an earthly hell. Therefore, let
us aim higher and teach on the state of being carried away by overwhelming emotional joy after
living a faithful life focused on the promises of God.
