In my number of years as a Pastor, I have not seen any other thing take people out of the church and the will of God like offense. People fall into different types of sin and make a comeback and even get stronger in their walk with God after they have been restored but when someone takes offense, it is almost impossible to restore him. The offended makes a lot of excuses; he even uses Bible verses to justify why he should stay in offense, making it almost impossible to talk to him. He builds a wall around him hoping to protect himself from being mistreated again but the wall becomes his prison.
