Preaching the Gospel Message of Jesus Christ to SINners

It is clear from the holy scripture (Psalm 5:5) that GOD hates SINners (workers of iniquity). Never-the-less, the mere thought of the fact that GOD hates anyone, disarms the average SINner from the last piece of any false and deceptive assurance he or she may have of making it into Heaven. It is therefore without any amazement that SINners adversely react to the sound Bible truth that “GOD hates SINners” when it is vigorously preached by a fearless preacher of the Gospel.


A common erroneous belief opposing the Bible message of “GOD hates SINners” comes from the mouth of pseudo-saints who say “what SINner would possibly want to come to GOD if GOD hates SINners?” This philosophy has been developed because the majority of confessing Christians have been seduced into believing the lie that the primary responsibility of any real Christian is to draw as many SINners to GOD (Jesus Christ) as possible, without offending the SINners. These so called expert soul winners believe and teach that Jesus never said anything that would offend SINners because he was too busy loving on them and this they believe in the face of verbatim scripture that proves the contrary. These apostate false teachers are only reproducing sheep after their own kind…hell bound SINners and reprobates.


Through basic reading of the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John a person, who has not been indoctrinated with doctrines of devils, seducing spirits and traditions of men by the sleight of men, can easily conclude that Jesus’ words were just as offensive to SINners then as they are to SINners now. Contrary to the false teaching that has been spewed from behind countless pulpits, the Pharisees were not the only group of SINners who Jesus made offensive statements to and about.


The Words Of Jesus Christ
Jesus called a woman a *dog* (Matthew 15:21-28; Mark 7:25-30); Jesus called Peter satan (Matthew 16:21-23; Mark 8:31-33); Jesus called his own disciples faithless and *perverse* (Matthew 17:14-17; Luke 9:41); Jesus called all those who sold and bought in the temple thieves (Matthew 21:12-13; Mark 11:15-17); Jesus denied being related to those who were considered to be his mother and brothers if they did not do the will of his Father, GOD (Mark 3:32-35); Jesus offended many people in his own country with his teachings and works (Mark 6:1-3); Jesus *upbraided* his disciples (Mark 16:14); Jesus’ words offended all the people in the synagogue in Nazareth so much that they were filled with *wrath* and attempted to throw Jesus off of a hill (Luke 4:28-29); Jesus called the people who were gathered around him an *evil* generation and said that they would be *condemned* in the judgment (Luke 11:29-32); Jesus told the people that unless they repented they would *perish* (Luke 13:1-5); Jesus called Herod who was a governmental ruler a *fox* (Luke 13:31-32); Jesus called two of his disciples *fools* (Luke 24:25); Jesus *upbraided* whole cities, prophesied *woe* to them and condemned them to hell because they repented not after hearing the preaching of the kingdom of GOD (Matthew 11:20-24; Luke 10:13-15);

Additionally, many professing Christians and SINners alike have a totally errant and distorted perception of how Jesus conducted himself. Some would falsely purport that Jesus the Christ never raised his voice while addressing people but John 12:44 states that “Jesus cried and said” and John 7:28 states “Then Jesus cried in the temple as he taught”. In John 7:37, it states: “…Jesus stood and cried, saying…” The word “cried” as it is used in these texts, is an old English word which simply means “shouted”, not wept.


But the answer to this question requires only the basic understanding of the predominant message to SINners throughout the holy scriptures, which is REPENT!

This command for SINners to repent was preached by the Old Testament prophets who spoke as they were moved by GOD. The message to repent was accompanied with a warning of destruction. Those who ignored the message to repent would divinely encounter the intense and hot *wrath* (violent anger) of GOD. The message to repent is as a direct result of the foundational sound biblical truth that “GOD hates SINners.” Obviously, there would be no real need for SINners to repent if GOD loved them. This is the same message that was preached in the New Testament scriptures. John the Baptist, Jesus Christ, Peter, Paul and the disciples/ followers of Christ preached this same message with a foundational understanding that GOD is angry with the wicked everyday (Psalm 7:11) and that the wicked and those who love violence, GOD hates (Psalm 11:5).


What has been canonized as the New Testament scriptures opens with John the Baptist continuing this same message- to repent and to flee from the wrath to come (Matthew 3:1-2; Luke 3:7-8). Many will read these passages in the New Testament and not consider exactly what John the Baptist was preaching that people should repent for and who was bringing the wrath that the people should flee from. Firstly, it is clearly understood from the text that the people were being told openly and publicly by John the Baptist to repent for their sins. Secondly, the wrath that John the Baptist was telling the people to flee from was coming from GOD (John 3:36). *WRATH: retirbutory punishment for an offense*.



Please take careful notice to this text of the holy scripture because no where in John the Baptist’s open and public preaching to the SINners did he ever say that GOD loved them in order to get them to turn to GOD. So it is a great departure from; and perversion of sound doctrine for anyone else who claims to be a preacher of the Gospel to try to turn SINners to GOD by lying and telling them that GOD loves them. Further, no where throughout the book of Acts will you ever read that any of the apostles or disciples ever preached to SINners that GOD loved them.


These agents of satan himself purporting themselves to be ministers of Christ, not only subvert whole houses with the lie that GOD loves SINners but they further attempt to oppose, withstand and condemn those who are preaching the pristine and sound doctrinal message that “GOD hates SINners.”


The spiritual warfare on this topic is great and has increased even more because of the perversion of GOD's word that is spewing from the pulpits of weak, wimpy, effiminate, lukewarm, blaspheming, reprobate, lying ministers of satan purporting themselves to be ministers of Christ. The time is now at hand where there is a clear separation between those who have decided to believe the lie that “GOD loves SINners” from those who can still hear GOD's voice and have enough Holy Ghost boldness to stand in the face of the status-quo, lukewarm, wimpy, perverted, Bible illiterate and powerless pseudo-Christian and not bow down to the lies of the devil. As a result, it is with much tribulation and persecution at the hands of the wicked hell bound SINners that the saints of GOD fearlessly preach this historic divinely inspired message from GOD that: “GOD hates SINners, repent in Jesus name and live sin free.” The holy scripture says this concerning these corrupters:

2 Peter 2:1-3
1But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
2And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
3And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.


The scripture states that “many” not a few shall follow the destructive and deadly ways of these pseudo-Christians. The primary reason why these pseudo-Christians will be followed by “many” is because “the way of truth shall be evil spoken of” and those who follow them love not the truth to the damning of their souls. This is precisely what happens when the way of truth that "GOD hates SINners" is preached, it is "evil spoken of" by those who love not the truth to the damning of their souls.
