Why is the amount of skepticism rising in Christianity?
I tell you why.
1. People don't read their bibles.
2. People ignore the Baptism in the Holy Spirit.
3. Preacher don't preach on point 1 and 2.
4. The majority preach ear tickling sermons.
End of story, very clear and simple.
Very clear and simple. yes.
Even if they do read the Bible, study and memorize, they may well be as Jesus Says: studying because they think that they will find life .... but like the religious scholars and religious leaders then, today also they reject Jesus and do not seek the Kingdom of God.
Even if they do not ignore the Baptism in the Holy Spirit, they continue to not understand Scripture nor the Power of God.
Even if preachers preach on pints 1 and 2, so what ? They fail.... due to lack of honoring God and disobedience, and unbelief.
Finally yes, (4), the majority tickle ears ..... seeking the approval of men, instead of God's Approval... and
they ENJOY the approval of men.... they refuse to pay the price for God's Approval .... the "cost" is too high for them !

With the condition of things in the churches and in the world and on forums/internet today, should not everyone be skeptical ?
