I would have, if I may, the advice and thoughts of wiser, more mature Christians on some articles I have written in response to [url=https://www.sermonindex.net/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=24911&forum=48&13]an Australian AOG pastor that was found to have lied about cancer to hide an addiction to pornography[/url], and the state of the Church in general in Australia.

Amen to the last statement. However, I am concerned that when people say that you do not have to know a lot about doctrine, it can be a subtly way of saying that we do not need to know a lot about our first love Jesus.

Doctrine as well God-centered passion is very important in Evangelism.

I highly Recommend this article by Ernest Reisinger on the subject:
