The Honey Coated Gospel

Usually the honey coating of the Gospel is being done by sincere Christians, who have the desire to make the gospel more attractive. And they think that by doing that they will draw more people to Christ. They do not realize that they themselves have a problem accepting our Father God the way He says He is and acts.
Therefore they feel the need to make the Lord look better by softening up the message of the Gospel. Ofcourse this is actually very arrogant and displeasing to God, because in their mind they feel that our heavenly Father does not appear loving enough.
And so judging God to be less than perfect.
Most of the time this seems to happen when they are witnessing or
teaching on the " unconditional love of God " . As an example I will tell you
what I heard in a so called Spirit filled church recently. the sermon subject was the amazing Love of God for all people . The Pastors reasoning went as follows;
1 . God's love for all people requires our response and a relationship with Him . Amen !
2 . A relationship requires change , so God changed ! Wrong . God never changes . We have to change. Mal.3:6 " For I the Lord do not change"
3 . Then he made the explicit statement, of which He declared that it would surprise most of us. { It sure did surprise me unpleasantly } ; " God never send anybody to Hell .!"
Dead wrong again! Who did send into the Lake of eternal fire, Satan and His angels, the anti Christ and the false prophets ? Rev, 20:10/15 And of course there are numeral scriptures which are warning us thet certain sins will lead us to Hell.
The Honey coating of the Gospel seem to be wide spread . They are teaching that because God is Love, a loving God would not cause you physical or spiritual harm and throw you into Hell. They can not and do not accept our heavenly Father the way He says He is and does act. Disregarding totally Deut
32:89 Or 1 Sam 2"6, where our God states that He kills and makes alive , wounds and heals, brings low and lifts up , makes poor and rich . There must be very little understanding of the total sovereingnity of our God.
In Romans chapter 9 from verse 12 till end our Lord is addressing people who find Him unjust and dare to talk back to Him. He says " shall what is formed say to whom formed it , why did you make me thus ? "
No there is absolutely no need to sweeten up the Gospel and trying to make God look more loving. John 3:16 tells it all . Jesus declared in John
15:13 that there is no greater love than this " He lays his life down for his friend " And Jesus Our Lord Himself did do that, while we were yet sinners !
Amazing Grace !
The way we His followers are supposed to bring the Gospel is to bring this message of redeeming Love together with a warning where it will lead to if they reject it and refuse to repent. If a person rejects Jesus as is Savior and as the greatest proof of God's love, he is in serious trouble indeed and the Bible states that Jeus will then become a stumbling stone .
The message of the Love of God for His creation and the warning of Hell fire should be preached together. Jesus did so and God designed it to bring people into salvation.
the Fear of God is a much needed doctrine today,
" For our God is a consuming fire . ! Hebr.12:29
