New Creation pastor says sorry for controversial sermon

Jesus is considered by scholars such as Weber ...Image via Wikipedia
First it was Rony Tan of Lighthouse Evangelism and now according to Yahoo News:

"New Creation Church pastor Mark Ng, 48, has personally apologised for a controversial sermon he gave in 2008.

Ng is currently being investigated by the Internal Security Department (ISD) for giving the sermon in which he mocked Taoist beliefs. In a 10-minute audio clip posted on YouTube, Ng is heard joking with the congregation about Chinese rituals and in one instance, compared praying to Taoist deities to “seeking protection from secret society gangsters”."

Lighthouse Evangelism, New Creation and City Harvest (if you have not heard about their problems...where have you been?) are all so called "Mega Churches" and they all put the Christian faith in a bad light.

Forget about their "Prosperity Gospel" preaching which is rubbish in my opinion, their "interest in building mega business" using church funds, they all have people including pastors (senior ones for that) that have behaviour which is shocking to me...

They contribute to non-Christians who think that Christianity is about telling others that their beliefs is flawed but also making fun and jokes of other faith.

They actions has thus far been giving the wrong impression and hope that the authority will do something to these "mad" pastors (senior ones) to preserve our religious harmony and also protect other Christians (of non-mega ones) who formed the majority of the Christian community.

Let's hope that these crazy pastors think before they open their mouth as they are supposed to preach the Word Of God and not tell jokes and entertain. If laughter and applause is what they are looking for, they should become a stand up comic instead.
