Duct Tape Stupid

Image
Please leave a comment at the bottom of the page   I was surfing the internet the other day and I was completely discussed with what the world thinks of Christians in general. What I was upset about was those thing which are just blatantly wrong that the world, (and most Christians) held as true. Internet apologetics is hard, you need a very thick skin to not get depressed, you can become angry and sometimes it actually causes you to sit back and cry. Not for the hurt but for the loss. Yet, sadly many Christian are as much to blame for our condition, as those that have yet to come to believe. In an effort to mitigate our gushing ignorance in the present of a non-believer, we twist the scripture to save the impression of piety rather than search the scriptures to tell the truth reveled in them.  So as to mitigate this foolishness and to cut short the mental assault on logic. Let me bring to light this day two of the stupidest things we say concerning our...

What meaning can there be in a love that is not costly to the lover?

Image
This question was given to me, a week or two ago, and it took about 5 days to answer.  Not that it was so difficult as it was difficult to come to understand the question. So I waited and waited for God to make clear what he would have me respond.  After five days I got up one Saturday Morning ready to address the question. Below is an excerpt from my response, which caused me and I would suggest us all to introspectively consider or reconsider not our love, but our hate for our brother man. Luke 10:30 A traveler was beaten and robbed and left near dead  I don’t want to be mistaken, when I first read the question I was completely stumped. Not so much by the question as I was syntax of the question which if inferred incorrectly will naturally reach an undesirable conclusion. Fearful that my solution would be err due to my ignorance, I re-framed from any antiphon choosing not to try to befuddle you with Bull****, in an attempt to display my prideful br...

Where have all the Children Gone? (Pt3)

Image
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge; because you have rejected knowledge, I reject you from being a priest to me. And since you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children. (Hosea 4:6)  Part 3 of a 3 part series  My People are Destroyed for Lack of Knowledge. Part 1 Who snatched them from my Father's Hand? Part 2  A knife to a Gun Fight For years the assumed program for children's Sunday school  was to tell an  story about someone in the Bible and give candy to whomever  among the children that was able to answer the question posed about the Sunday school teacher.  As the kids got older Sunday school would include some memorizing of verses and even a quarterly play put on by the kids.   However this only motivated the kids ( and even young adults)  to participate in the activities of the church, not the worship of Christ making them social church goers, not Christians (followers of C...

How to get victory through the prayer of King Hezekiah

Image
Series 5 Prayer 2 ( Biblical Prayers for Today) I indirectly addressed this prayer several times, the most notable was in my post  Defending the Great Name of God through Prayer. In that post the purpose was to show how we have a responsibility to defend the Name of God. That particular post more than any other was met with a lot of resistance, I think because it asks the lay Christian to come out of his comfort zone and actively engage the devices of Satan in battle, through prayer. I am  not sure why Christians, who are supposed to be praying people refuse to pray the will of God with such dogged resistance. However that was that post. The Victory Prayer of King HezeKiah Today we turn our attention more to the details of this   prayer and how to apply it life today . However before we can do this we must get some base information about the circumstance. Who is Sennacerib?   King Sennacherib (suh-na-kruh-rib) was an Assyria King from  aro...
