They change God's word to make it say what they want it to say. The wages of sin is death, not eternal separation from God in eternal torment.

The preachers today are not faithfully preaching against sin, righteousness, judgment, and true repentance. You rarely ever hear them mention the word “Hell” in church or in their sermons but scripture is quite clear: hell is a real place. It is not mere unconsciousness. It is not temporal. It is eternal torment.
Jesus speaks on Hell and Destruction in Forty Six versus in the Bible.
Matthew 5:22
