The Biggest Problem in America is Sin and the Falling Away of the Truth in the Church Pulpits.
The absolute failure in the pulpits in America is to proclaim all of God’s truth that we should not serve sin.
Many so-called pastors and evangelists are not spending sufficient time in prayer and not looking to God’s Word for direction.

Many teach that God loves us all, whether we sin, lie, cheat, steal, or even kill. They use John 3:16
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
In today’s world, it is one of the most familiar verses from the Bible, this Scripture is known and repeated by both sinners and Christians and is heavily misquoted.
God indeed loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son. That is how much God loved everyone. He would that everyone would repent and get saved.
2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
But those who do not repent he will bring them to judgment to be judged and punished.
