The time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears.
–2 Timothy 4:3 (KJV)–

The Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron.
–1 Timothy 4:1-2 (KJV)–

—

Years I spent in vanity and pride,
caring not my Lord was crucified,
knowing not it was for me He died
on Calvary.

Mercy there was great and grace was free;
pardon there was multiplied to me;
there my burdened soul found liberty,
at Calvary.

By God’s Word at last my sin I learned;
then I trembled at the law I’d spurned,
till my guilty soul imploring turned
to Calvary.

Now I’ve giv’n to Jesus ev’rything;
now I gladly own Him as my King;
now my raptured soul can only sing
of Calvary.

O the love that drew salvation’s plan!
O the grace that brought it down to man!
O the mighty gulf that God did span
at Calvary!

–William Newell, “At Calvary”–

The denominations represented by the preachers below are the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA), the Southern Baptist Church (SBC), and Church of the Nazarene. This represents the conservative or the “old fashioned gospel preacher” position in these churches. The majority of PCA pastors are antinomian leaning, calling obedience just “legalism” and talking about individuals in their churches being elected from the foundation of the world; the majority of SBC pastors are antinomian leaning, holding a “confess and believe” view of the cross and resurrection based on Romans 10:9-10 and would likely call obedience just “salvation by works,” and direct your attention to the end times, and tell you that the gracious times we’re living in are not like the times back in Old Testament days, when God’s people supposedly needed to obey him; and Church of the Nazarene as well as Church of God and Assemblies of God, have suffered an invasion of antinomianism and hyper-grace, with an over tolerance of homosexuals in the church, a confusing liberalism of “freedom,” an unconditional love message that trumps preaching about commandment keeping and hellfire warnings, similar to the mainline churches, often accepting the prosperity gospel. Its not hard to see how these horrific errors have grown up alongside a whole lot of clergy sexual abuse and internet pornography, while there’s virtually crickets about these problems in the pulpits. But all of these denominations, have really small conservative churches, that still hold the Ten Commandments to be the final checks against disobedience to God. “Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it” (Matthew 7:13-14).
