OFFENSIVE BIBLE WORDS

An Indiana mega church pastor is annoyed by the word “saved.”
In a recent blog post he asked, “Does the Word ‘Saved’ Bother Anyone Else?” He also has a problem with the phrase “born again.” He refers to such terms as “insider terms.” (Christian Post, 9.01)
Friend, this is nonsense.
After all, “saved” and “born again” are terms used in the Bible. Jesus Himself said, “Ye must be born again.” (John 3:7). And Romans 10:13 says, “Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Saved is a very common word to describe what happens when a person is rescued from sin by the Lord Jesus Christ. Where will all this nonsense end? In the great apostasy?
