The Church Needs a Touch

Some evangelists lose souls while trying to win arguments. Some preachers lose real goals while trying to win compliments. Some try to twist timeless truth because holiness seems too hard. Some turn the temple to a booth where they cheapen God's standard. Some promote tithe and offerings to buy aircrafts and build cathedrals. Some ignore congregants' sufferings, sinking souls are used as collaterals... Some leaders sugar-coat bitter pills to find favour before wealthy men. They drag dying men from God's hills and drop them in Satan's eternal den. Wake up now, o sleeping pilgrim! God will soon purge His church. Come now to the healing stream, ask the Lord for a second touch.
