Too Much Entertainment
Cotton Candy Preaching / Water Down Gospel
Welcome to The Truth Series, a dedicated guide for Christians and new believers seeking to uncover the supernatural and historical truths of the Bible. In a world where mainstream Christianity often prioritizes entertainment over deep spiritual understanding, our mission is to bring you back to the core of Biblical truth. We strive to expose false teachings and lead you to the authentic message of Jesus, highlighting His boundless love and mercy.
Proverbs 18:15 - "The heart of the discerning acquires knowledge, for the ears of the wise seek it out." Proverbs 15:14 - "The discerning heart seeks knowledge, but the mouth of a fool feeds on folly." This website serves as a guide for Christians as well as Non-Believers who may not fully understand the supernatural and historical aspects of the Bible. The modern mainstream church has largely failed to teach the truth, focusing instead on entertainment and numbers. Entertainment has become the top priority in contemporary Christianity, often taking precedence over deep, reflective thinking. This shift has led to a form of worldliness and anti-intellectualism. Today's church is often too complacent to engage in intellectual stimulation, instead embracing New Age beliefs like the so-called “name it and claim it” or “prosperity gospel.” The Bible has been reduced to a self-help book, and pastors are increasingly becoming motivational speakers, offering emotional experiences rather than spiritual growth. This world is not only a realm for us to live, love, build character, and make the most important decision of our life, by finding belief in God's One and only Son, but it will serve as an eternal example of what happens when you allow just a little sin in. It sends out corruption like a cancer that only gets worse over time. The Bible is the truth; it should not be treated as a self-help or financial guide. My hope is to lead people to the truth of Jesus and to expose false churches and prophets, because, in the end, the truth is all that matters, and the truth is our only reality. If you genuinely seek the truth, you will find it, and if you choose Him, you will be in His love for all eternity.
Satan has infiltrated the modern church, which seeks comfort and entertainment rather than truth. Many churches today are more focused on providing a feel-good experience—complete with concerts, motivational speeches, and messages that avoid conviction. These churches cater to the desires of their congregation, giving them what they want to hear rather than what they need to hear. As Paul warned, people are seeking to have their "ears tickled" (2 Timothy 4:3), choosing entertainment and shallow sermons over the hard truths of the Gospel. In contrast, the true church stands firm on the Word of God, unafraid to preach the entire counsel of Scripture, even if it challenges or offends the world. A genuine church allows the Spirit of God to move freely, calling people to repentance and leading them toward holiness. In the true church, the fear of God is central, and there is a deep reverence for His Word and commands.
The Church for the last 30 years has tried to find ways not to offend non-Christians and try to find ways to take the offenses out of the Christian message designing approaches to non-believers that don't create hostility or rejections. It has created an evangelical movement that is void of the truth. Why do they do this? Because the gospel in truth is so offensive. It is offensive in fact strange it may seemed the good news is hated by non-believers. John 15:18 “If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first". One thing the disciples knew FOR SURE was that the world hated Jesus Christ. What is particularly striking is that Jesus was first persecuted not by pagans or idol worshipers, but by His own people—the Jews. The very people who followed the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, who held the Scriptures of the Old Testament, were the first to reject Jesus as the Messiah. Despite seeing His miracles and hearing His teachings, they could not recognize that He was the fulfillment of the prophecies they had studied for centuries. In fact, when Jesus healed a man on the Sabbath, the Pharisees responded not with awe, but with plotting His death (Mark 3). If those who had the Scriptures and followed the true God rejected Jesus, how much more should we expect hostility from a world that is steeped in paganism, idolatry, and secularism? The world we live in today is increasingly focused on self, materialism, and false ideologies, all of which are in direct opposition to the message of Christ. This world doesn’t just reject the Gospel—it hates it because it calls people to lay down their idols and follow the one true God. Yet, despite this, many churches have tried to soften the message to avoid offending people. They’ve watered down the Gospel, making it more about self-improvement, happiness, and positivity, and less about sin, repentance, and the lordship of Jesus. But in doing so, they strip the Gospel of its power. The cross was never meant to be comfortable or appealing to the world—it’s a symbol of sacrifice, redemption, and the ultimate victory over sin and death. When we remove the offense, we remove the heart of the Gospel. The truth is, that Jesus warned us that following Him would not be easy and that the world would hate us just as it hated Him. The disciples didn’t try to make the message more comfortable—they boldly proclaimed the truth, even at the cost of their lives. They understood that the Gospel, though offensive to the world, is the power of God for salvation (Romans 1:16).
Jesus commanded us to make disciples, not merely church members. Yet, one of the greatest challenges facing the church today is a lack of sound Biblical teaching, genuine repentance, and true discipleship. Many churches are more concerned with filling their pews, increasing numbers, and implementing programs that cater to worldly desires, rather than focusing on the spiritual growth and maturity of those already within the body of Christ. This shift has led to a dangerous imbalance. Instead of fostering deep relationships with Christ, many churches emphasize activities, events, and entertainment. There is a preoccupation with human ambition—such as building large congregations and growing in popularity—over nurturing the souls of those in the church and helping them grow in their faith. As a result, the very essence of what the church is supposed to be—a place for spiritual equipping and discipleship—has been diluted. What’s missing in many congregations is the presence of Holy Spirit-filled sermons that truly convict hearts and lead people to repentance and genuine conversion. Instead of preaching the tough, transformative truths of the Gospel, some leaders shy away from messages that challenge, convict, and require change. But this is exactly what is needed—a return to the heart of the Gospel, where sin is confronted, repentance is called for, and lives are transformed. Discipleship is not about filling seats, but about transforming lives. Jesus didn’t command us to build large organizations or attract as many people as possible through enticing programs. He commanded us to go and make disciples—people who are willing to deny themselves, take up their cross, and follow Him (Matthew 28:19; Luke 9:23). True discipleship is costly, but it is also essential. It requires time, effort, and intentional investment in people’s lives, helping them grow in their faith, understand God’s Word, and live it out daily.
When we enter the pathway of walking with our God, we will certainly come across resistance from three different areas. Our greatest obstacle is ourselves because we have inherited imperfection from our first parents Adam and Eve. The Scriptures make it quite clear that we are mentally bent toward bad, not good. (Gen 6:5; 8:21) In other words, our natural desire is toward wrong. Prior to sinning, Adam and Eve were perfect, and they had the natural desire of doing good, and to go against that was to go against the grain of their inner person. Scripture also tells us of our inner person, our heart. Jeremiah 17:9 - “The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it? I, the LORD, search the heart, I test the mind, Even to give every man according to his ways, According to the fruit of his doings.
