Sickening! They should be ashamed. Never has there been such a biblical illiterate bunch of so called Christians. Christian material has never been so abundant, we can listen to sermons 24 hours a day, read anything on net, bibles everywhere. Yet in majority of churches there is a famine concerning the gospel. Sex sermons might attract the seekers who want to be entertained but not the true Christian. Get off the pulpit you false teachers, isn’t it enough that you are hell bound, no- you want to take as many as you can with you. So many need to hear the gospel, but in these churches they never will. This is why persecution has always been good for the church, it sifts out the rubbish.

Hyper-sexualized marketing tactics continue to rule the secular world. This doesn’t belong in the church. This doesn’t surprise me, as I see more & more churches using worldly marketing tactics, and some are making a nice living from it. Thanks for bringing attention to this story…

Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. Romans 12:2

“Pastor” Howard, you are no Pastor sir, you my dear fellow would be what the Lord described as a “Hireling” (John 10:13)

And I must remind you sir, that unless you repent you will perish! (Luke 13:3)

Pastor Howard,
Is preaching on sex necessary during worship service? Are little ears to be exposed to such messages? If there are problems concerning sex in a marriage, shouldn’t private counseling be sought with a pastor, as opposed to preaching this during family worship? As a parent of a 10 year old, I do NOT want my daughter exposed to this type of preaching in a public setting. It is my responsibility, as a parent, to teach her about these matters. If I run into problems, I will consult my pastor privately.
It is a sad day when you cannot take your little ones to church because the sermon may be too ‘racy’ for little ears.
Adult bible studies would be an ideal setting for such teaching, but NOT Sunday morning worship service.

sound doctrine as in 1 Cor 13, Col 3, Song of Songs??? As much as God speaks in His Word speaks about marriage, sex, purity, adultery, faithfulness, love… are we as the body of Christ not supposed to teach on these subjects???

They seem to have forgotten that the Lord was not relevant and even pushed people away by His teaching (a lot of the disciples didn’t stay with Him anymore, the rich young ruler, the Pharisees, etc. etc. etc.). People are so into the fact of God’s LOVE that they forget about God! By-pass the Giver of the gifts to get hold of the gifts seems to be the rule of the day!

Relevant???
The fact that such ‘sermons’ are missing from church history SHOULD be enough, nonetheless the defenders of such garbage will come attempting to use some lame excuse, while trying to walk the tightrope (of heresy/truth) by not blantantly saying “well, times have changed, we need new revelation!”

fourpointer,

Ooops! Forgot about that.

Yeah…how about handing over the forgiveness of sins for Jesus’ sake (once in awhile)…and let it go at that.

(prefaced by a bit of law- of course)

What, and offend their audience?
