"I KNOW THAT AS A LOVING SHEPHERD, I have to be careful of my tone. But I can’t apologize for preaching convicting truth. I ask you, what happens to the church when pastors no longer show people their iniquities? Where would David have ended up, if he hadn’t had Nathan to show him his wickedness? [...]
The worst possible judgment is for God to turn you over to your sin, to stop all of the Holy Spirit’s dealings in your life. Yet, that’s exactly what is happening to many Christians today. They choose to listen only to soft, flesh-assuring preaching. Where there is no convicting Word, there can be no godly sorrow over sin. And where there is no godly sorrow for sin, there can be no repentance. And where there is no repentance, there is only hardness of heart..."

"What Happens to the Church
When Preachers No Longer Preach Against Sin"
by David Wilkerson - See: WorldChallenge.org David Wilkerson
REFLECTION
Full Gospel preaching is a gospel including preaching of both Sin and Grace, of both Law and Euangelion. This is the Mission of the Church all over the globe (including us in The Swedish Christianity).
The Church in Sweden asks the global Church to remember us in prayer. This is a prayer request about our need. It is about what the Lord Jesus asks the people in Revelation chapters 2-3 to get, namely Repentance, the old 'One-Hundred-and-Eighty-Degrees-Movement', i.e. metánoia.
