For 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
"Tell me something good, tell me that you love me. Tell me something good, tell me that you like it." I've written volumes about false preachers and sound doctrines, let talk about itching ears, but first a little 1970's funk....
Okay, now that you have an ear worm for the next 24 hours, let's talk about itching ears. There is nothing new here, Israel was notorious for only wanting to listen to prophets who told them what they wanted to hear. We are no different, the challenge is that the Western church is now completely dead because they have demanded for themselves only "nice" preaching and "easy" words.
They have bottle rot from staying on the milk bottle too long. Jesus describes them as naked, blind, and poor. They pretty much hate me... most of my friends have hid me on facebook, they don't want to hear this hard stuff. Nobody wants to read about, "The End of the World, Dolley..." Alas, itching ears don't want to hear of repentance, suffering, judgement, hell, pride, and the big one: SIN.
They want to hear about money and blessing. They want to hear about health and long lives. They want to hear about love, acceptance, and a universal god that fits in their pockets. They are fools and the Lord wants to flip their tables over and drive them out of the sanctuary with a whip.
