Who is beating the ignorant over the head with God's Word? Why would you characterize public preaching in this way. This is the way the world characterizes it, those who reject the gospel of Jesus Christ. Whose side are you on? The side of the declaration of the gospel or the side of the world and the Mormons? Paul said, "Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men." (2 Cor. 5:11). This more accurately describes the ministry of public preaching. Mormons don't believe in it because they don't believe that most of the world is headed for eternal damnation in hell fire. Judy, do you believe in the doctrine of eternal damnation? If so, how can you possibly not be shouting, "Fire! Fire! Get out while there is time!" Peace be with you.
